Mechanics Pond

truly no luck as of late. forgot my rod in my moms car and had to handline today. fishing hasnt been so fun for me recently, all i seem to want to do is sleep. ive been so dreadful recently, some days i feel like i have nobody (aside from my cat), my mom is always at work, my friends never want to be around me, i get weird looks when im out in public. maybe ill take a break from fishing for now and just rest. stress has been taking a toll on my physical health

boring night

today was good until i snapped my rod as i was picking it up. thats what i get for buying the cheapest one i could find. at least i caught this nice perch

they're so cool when theyre dark like this

pumpkinseeds are some of the most beautiful fish around here in my opinion

not too much luck yet. im riding home quick to eat some lunch and i'll be back in a bit. ive heard crappie is good to eat but im not sure how to cook them or what size is best eating
