Got a PM from Spikestr who wanted to meet me at Little Dell for an hour or 2 of fishing. TDT and I showed up and met him in the ample sized parking lot. The wind was HOWLING harder than it typically does. This combined with a dry cold front and a full moon...I knew that the catching rates would suffer a bit. Still despite the harsh conditions...Little Dell was still a litltle slice of heaven. While walking down to the lake Spikestr asked what Junior High School we went to....once we revealed the location we found out that he was one of the math teachers at our old school! Too bad all we knew of him was some short hallway appearnces...probley when we were late to class or sluffing in the hallways[
]. He claimed to not know us...which is odd considering that we had spikey hair back then too.
Started at the chocolated colored inlet and within 3 casts with the gold Kastmaster I had a cutthroat on. Snapped a picture and threw him back. The wind and waves were relentless so we moved out into deeper water. That is when Spikestr got into a fish on a Panther Martin gold blade, black and yellow body spinner. The wind died down and the temps dropped. I was able to manage few more fish on a gold Jakes as well as the Baby Carp Strike King Red Eyed Shad. We ended up calling it a day due some time constraints. In the end I got 4 fish and Spikestr got the one...poor TDT spent too much time blabbin insted of fishing so he did not get any. That can happen when good company is present.
The website that hosts my photos is down so I will have to attach the photos insted of posting them inline.[frown]
P.S. The last shot is for your enjoyment.
