🍥 oh kay, back in the window seat, coffee and typing and wondering if I am awake
the view is threatening but that s been the pattern - swirling rain fronts
is the holiday relaxing ? different and we didn't do a lot. Even ate in one day. the major trauma was my bite wound [ horsefly ???? dragon or gila monster ]
further to the week that was : FISHING or rather my kind of fishing or what I actually did.
Dreaming of far flung oases w / hidden lakes and fly in fishing NO
I was able to walk down to the dock in three minutes. Drop in a trout magnet [ lure type ] and haul out 3 and 4 inch sunfish at will. Coming along were Largemouth bass ranging from 6 to 8 inches and up to 12 or so. Perfect for me.
New. Actually, what I have always loved and been able to do.
The reality. Going to a new place requires some prep and luck. No knowing the actual water conditions depth / weed cover etc I packed a varied assortment of lures and hooks. Turns out that my first go to was the charm. A trout magnet kit is based on # 1 / 32 weight jigs and 1 inch plastic tidbits. Really, tubes of plastic stuff and a split tail. Nothing really.
The sunfish took runs at the offering and swallowed the trout magnet.
That was my fishing. Yes, tried other ideas but came back to the original every time
