Perry, Ohio

Went to sycamore state park today fishing it was a slow day only caught three trouts and one small crappie and a bunch of small bluegill.

I was able to catch my limit today, but not before missing 18 other fish. I lost three of them right at the bank, one actually broke off on land. I played Hot Potato with it for a good 10 seconds before it flopped back in the water. I caught one and missed 3 on chartreuse PowerBait. The rest bit the red worm about two feet down from the bobber.

It was a little slow, but I managed to pull in my limit. They were all between 12 and 14 inches long. I averaged one fish an hour after 5 hours, but missed at least 12. They just weren’t very aggressive, so I was having trouble hooking them. I threw everything at them, but Power Bait was the only thing they went after today.

I didn’t have much luck catching trout, so I switched to my crappie rig. I only caught one crappie and two tiny channel cats. The trout were biting, but I couldn’t hook any. My nephew ended up catching one little trout.

Took me about 3 hours, but I managed to catch my limit today.

Only two today. It rained pretty hard, so I only stuck around for about 1.5 hours. Both catches were decent sized.

Not what I was going for, but it sure is a cute little fish.

Went to Acton lake today fishing it was a bad day the lake was up and muddy so I drove to sycamore state park and got one small bluegill.
