I have never fished on Christmas Day before maybe this year will be the 1st!!! This weekend isn't looking great but its not looking bad and the extended forecast looks pretty good(58 Christmas Day)! I was digging our Christmas Decos out of the loft in the garage last week and looked at my ice fishing sled,guess it stays where it is a little longer. 
Thinking of going for some shore fishing on the beach at
Asnacomet / comet Pond ,in Hubbardston,on Christmas.A couple weeks ago it was kinda crowded on the beach ,so I fished the boat ramp area,it was elbow to elbow there as well.The fishing was slow for every one,except for this HUGE eagle swooped down and missed a fish ,then came back and nabbed a rainbow and took it into a tree..Allot of ol timers/bucket brigaders were there from Wachusett Res.only a couple fish caught,I caught a little smallmouth using a dumbunny streamer.the streamer was almost as big as the fish.There was only 1 boat out there,trolling for trout,he said he only got 1 to the boat,small rainbow,and he had a couple drops.Well,that's where I'll be thurs. and friday,perhaps..Need to try out my new flyline that should arrive today.If anyone else is going out there ,don't hesitate to say hi..I'm the one with the big yellow laundry hamper tied to my leg..

Got out today as well. It was a struggle early with just 1 small keeper bass in the 1st 3 hours. Moved to pond 2 and had 3 hits at the boat and lost em all within 50 yards of the ramp after launching. Fished just about the entire perimeter of the pond with only 1 pickeral to show for it. Got back to the launch cove and proceeded to put 7 bass between 1.5 and 3lbs into the boat in a little over an hour before we had to call it quits. Left em biting we felt. All fish caught on reaction baits
