Pond Fishing with Hot Dogs... Gotta Bass!

Decided to take the #emmrod and @GoFish Cam to the local pond and see what will bite using hot dogs. Mainly Bluegill and Turtles but did have a pleasant surprise when a Bass went for the hot dog! First time catching a Bass with a hot dog!

Checked the Trot Line.

Checked the Trot Line this morning.  Had baited up with Shrimp and Hot Dogs this time.  Caught four Catfish we kept for dinner.  Also, caught and released three undersized Catfish and a White Bass.  And, did lose another Catfish while bring it in.  Fun stuff!

Bullheads on Bread and a Catfish at Celebration Park Starts the 2012 COAF Leader Board!

Fished the East Pond at Celebration Park this evening.  Used the Slip-Bobber Rig and Bread on light Spinning Gear.  Caught several Bullheads - seem to be bigger this year compared to last year.  Drought may not have impacted them as much thankfully!

While fishing the pond met another fisherman (Fishing54) who was using Hot Dogs for bait.  Caught a few Bullheads too, and then a decent Bruiser Catfish that went 17"-18" in size.  Easily made the COAF Leader Board for 2012!  Have since posted on the Board as the first entry of the year  Nice catch Fishing54!
