Default Mixed Bag Bonanza

I started at Beaver Brook where the water was low, weedy, and crystal clear. I decided to leave all my fancy lures in the car and invested in a couple dozen nightcrawlers. In about two hours I picked away at sunfish, fallfish, largemouths, a few trout, and a big rock bass. After a stop at Johnny's for lunch I hit my second spot: Natirar park, armed with a small jig. The fish were all over the jig, and I nailed sunfish after sunfish as fast as I could cast. Also mixed in were some fallfish, and a few largemouths and smallmouths.

Between both spots I probably caught around 50 fish. Nothing big; largest fish was a ~12" brown trout. Still, loads of fun on light tackle.

Sounds like my day with spinners. I like those "what am i going to catch next" places. I rather get 50 panfish in a few hrs than spend all day getting a pike or two.

Sounds like you had plenty of action. Sunfish are a good time on light tackle!!! You can really catch some Big Ones too!!! Nothing wrong with the good old worm!!!!
