In Fishing Pole Part I we easily justified a $20 fishing pole. By now I figured that the fishing pole excitement would be gone. Boy was I wrong.
Seven Lakes at Whitetail
Turns out that fishing with actual bait greatly improves your chances of success. Boy was I right about that. We can catch about a fish a minute with worms.
In the morning RJ found a place on the Whitetail access road where worms crawl out onto the road. So each morning around 7:30am RJ goes out with a cup full of dirt and picks up 10-15 fresh worms.
With fresh worms and a bunch of lakes stocked full of bluegills, the fishing has become much more exciting that in blog post one.
After some success, it was time to invite other kids along to participate. Carter and Spencer also had success. With the rule in place that you cannot go fishing alone ... it's a good thing RJ met these folks!
Doug and the Oriole
Hot, hot, and hot are 3 words Doug uses to describe fishing. Luckily there is a sycamore tree that shades one of the fishing places. The main issue with this spot is the Oriole that must have a nearby nest. For about an hour the bird chirped and heckled me while I was baiting hooks and throwing fish back into the lake.
