SPEEDBEAD Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Had a buddy call me asking if I wanted to hit some pond fish. Can't say no to that. His last text said something to the effect of "you'll catch a bunch of little ones, so I'm using my ultralight. Never seen any big ones caught." My text back to him was, "Yeah, I'm not. LOL" Got to the ponds and the place is littered with tiny bluegills. Smallest bluegill bait I had was the 5" Tru Tungsten SS, so I went to work with that. The look on his face was priceless when this thing came up out of the water. Scale took a poop on me, must have broken during the car accident and I never checked it out. Feel free to guess weight. It's always nice to prove people wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
