Union County Pickerel
Chris_JC and I decided to target slime darts today and we got some. We strapped the waders on and headed to a shallow lake known to have a few. We had some decent action in the morning between 8 and 11:30 scoring 4 apiece. After that, it slowed down for an hour until I scored two more around 1:30 right before we left. Chris scored all of his fish on a firetiger husky jerk, and despite trying different hard and soft baits, every one of my fish took a Carolina Pumpkin/Chartreuse Yum Forktail Dinger hooked texas/weightless. I even broke out the Smelly Jelly and caught the first two fish immediately after smearing it on. Morning was cold and I even had some ice on my guides. It warmed up a bit, but not too much. All fish came in very shallow water near the north end of the lake.
