Good morning,
First thanks Brian for introducing me to this group!
Went to my first opening day at the Hagerman ponds. WOW!
I had never seen so many canoes and kickboats and tubes in one area. Most were fishing for bass and a few were after Bluegil.
I'm not sure about the results for the efforts of all the rods and reels flying but mine were satisfying. I caught 10 palmsized gills on my own black foam beetle and a few smaller ones and lots of misses. I just love hearing that slurping sound as you fish along.
I fished from about 7 to 12:30 then it just got to hot.
I have tricked out my kickboat a little and was working out some of the kinks and testing my $2.00 yardsale Humminbird fish finder out. It worked just fine, thank you Lord.
All in alll it was a great day fishing!
