Lunch Break, October 2009

I found a little community fishing pond a few blocks from where I work and I figured I needed to go try it out. I'm typically not real big on fishing these types of spots but I saw it as a good opportunity to take a break from the office and unwind for a few minutes. I fished for about a half hour and in that time I landed 8 planter rainbows with the biggest going 13" and most going alot smaller than that. I'd guess the average fish I caught was in the 8" range. I used a mepps XD spinner size 1 rainbow pattern and I had hits or a fish on just about every cast. It was actually more entertaining than I thought it was going to be. I went back to work and the day seemed to go better. I think I may hit it more often now. I had my cell phone with me so I took a few pictures.

Small community pond

This was about average. This bow still had par marks.
