Decided to drive up to Jess Ranch and try my luck at Cats, since they been biting at Yucaipa for the past 3 weeks and the one i caught at Silverwood on Wednesday.I fished from 7 to 3:30 and managed to catch 1 cat but i did have my chances.
Got five good bites,one bite while the rod was in my hand and the fished even pulled drag,then it was gone!
Didn't even make a attempt at setting the hook !!
I think i was using too big of a hook (a size that a never use).Right after i changed to the size hook that i always use on the first pole,bait it,cast it out....BAM fish on while reeling in the slack from the cast!!Funny how that happens!!
I didn't get anymore bites after changing hooks, i'am never using those other hooks again they cost me fish
I was off my game today definitely, or maybe it was the 6 Corona's i drank because i never drink when i go fishing (the fish don't like when i drink beer, that's what i tell my girlfriend).
Anyway's, they were biting, the guy's next to me caught 3 and a guy also had two on his stringer when i was leaving.
I almost thought i was going to eat snake instead of fish. My girlfriend freaked out after i text her "i caught something" with only the first picture attached ( it wasn't zoomed in like it is here in the attachment).
She asked was it a worm? I told her "YEAH...ZOOM IN ON IT" with her phone. Ha-ha
