Today was most excellent! Those of you who read every entry in your friends list will remember The Legend of the Batpole, Part 1. For those who don't, it was mounting a Shakespeare reel on a Batman Shakespeare rod...
Today I went to Dawson lake, out North of the town of LeRoy. I found a nice spot in the shade of the woods off a trail, spent the afternoon drinking coffee, smoking, relaxing, and Fishing!!! For the first two and a half hours, I got nothing. Then I changed location and tactics (I hope to write up the tactics part for a magazine article.) To uphold again that the Batpole works, when I got home outside my apartment: (Look behind the cut...)
And those were just the ones I kept... I caught at least as many that I judged as too small to get a filet out of...
Then I cleaned 'em, Nikki made a nice butter and garlic boat, fired up the grill, and we had a few bites of Bluegill, after they bit me..., on the Batpole, that is!
Yay Batpole!!! :)
