3 Day Weekend
Had a 3 day weekend this weekend. Decided to fish all weekend! Went to 4th Cliff in Marshfield yesterday afternoon to fish the 730pm high tide, fished from around 5pm-830pm, didn't hook up on anything. Been everywhere this season and haven't caught a single Striper yet. Today I decided to head back down to Gallows Pond with another friend of mine started throwing random things in my tackle box for the hell of it. My friend hooked up on 4 Smallies, within the 2-2.5lb range. Only got pics of two of em' though. I decided to throw the last couple of shiners we had left over from a previous outing 3 days ago out there. Caught a nice 3lb 2oz Larry. Let him go, put on another shiner, cast out again. Bobber immediately goes under, I set the hook, reel him in. SAME FISH. Legit. The same fish I had just released 1 minute earlier had swam out and taken my other shiner AGAIN. I even saw where I took the hook out of the corner of his mouth. It was hilarious, what are the chances? Lol. I felt bad and put my dead shiner in his mouth, pushed it down a bit and he actually opened his throat and swallowed the shiner while I had him lipped. It was pretty damn cool. All in all a great 3 day weekend.
