Ponkapoag Fishing Report

Dark Spinners

From the house it looked like a perfect overcast day to do some fishing but when I arrived at the pond a mighty N/NE wind had whipped up. I hit my first bass on a black spinnerbait in the middle of the pond but the wind made it impossible to anchor in place. So I paddled to the windward side to use the trees as a windbreak. It worked for a short while but there were no fish to be had. Then the wind started to swirl and blow unpredictably. Soon it was blowing out of the East, so I threw on the drift sock and drifted west casting the spinnerbait. I was covering a lot of water and eventually hit a few fish. After finishing a drift I would paddle back to the eastern side and begin a new drift. It turned out to be a half decent day but I had to work my tail off, and by the end, I thought my casting arm was going to fall off. Enjoy the video.

  • I'm surprised nobody commented on my theme music, though you would have to be of a certain age to know itl

  • jjbagoose, the scale is a Rapala that takes a 9v battery. Don't know yet if it's waterproof though.
