Two Dinka is better than a skunk! The worm was also sherbet colored. I couldn’t find it in the gear catalog. #Catch24

I’ve been to this location at least 5 times before this, and never caught anything other than a small pumpkin seed sunfish. I kept telling myself I can’t leave Virginia without getting something out of here worth while. Today was the day! Thank you drop shot!
