I was studying at home for a midterm I have on Thursday. Distractions were around and I decided to go to the library at CSULB to study, but first I needed chap stick lol. Off to Target I went...
Driving there, I thought to myself, I'm already close to the lake, why not FISH!!! 4th cast or so, *thump thump* didn't take it. Cast same spot, *thump thump* AGAIN DIDN'T TAKE IT. 3rd cast same thing!!! stupid fish! worked that spot for 10 minutes for nothing. BTW I was drop shotting with a flick shake rigged wacky. Walked around the lake for an hour or so and make my way back to my general area.
Get on the phone with the GF asking where she wants to eat for dinner when *thump*, I reel in the slack slowly and see my line going. "I'LL CALL YOU LATER!!! FISH ON!!!" then I throw my phone on the grass and work the fish in. It was on the Chotto Shank hook 1/16 oz with a 5.8" Flick Shake color pumpkin pepper.
So I discovered the secret to the lake, the Bass bite when you're on the phone. 3 of the 4 fish I caught there the past couple of days have been when I was texting or on the phone.
BTW instead of blacking out background, i made sure it was all grass background... happy jlgarciaiii22??? lol. To make you even happier, it was caught in San Diego lol
