Late November Ditch Hoppin' Along the Kankakee - fish_a_holic - 11-25-2006 Hit a few of my favorite ditches today, and went hunting for a few more new ones...I was successful on both scores! The most productive bait for me today was a 1/4oz. Snagless Sally dressed with a 3.5" tail section from a chartreuse Culprit worm - took 3 bass between 12-13" on the spinner; switched over to a shortened Tiki worm, T-rigged weightless on a 5/0 Gamakatsu deep gap hook and started taking the fish that bumped the spinner but wouldn't take it - 2 more bass on the worm. ...here's one of the small bass from today The temperature started dropping off and so did the action, so we headed home...on the way home Lura spotted these 2 does on the side of the road... ...they're a little difficult to see, but I highlighted the area...they were only 8 feet from the van window, when I took this pic. Nature Notes: saw that the junco population is increasing rapidly, the sandhills are still around, saw several deer today (all does), and on the drive home saw a small herd walking a crop line between to forrested area (on private property, of course). ...all in all, another fine day down by the Kankakee!
