Love my weekdays off! No one around but me.
Got my AliExpress special in yesterday after a month. Had to go out and break it in today. Super nice rod for $18! The whole set up set me back $50. Here’s some of today’s catches!
Set up below if anyone cares.
Leydun Blackcreek 5’6”
Kastking Zephyr 500
SOS Trout Line 4lb
Had another fun day, took a few pics.
Dakota sunrise horsefly (mule) and dragonfly larvae in swamp fly (moondog) were the ticket.
With some storms rolling in soon and relatively cool weather for this time of year; figured the bite would be hot today. Didn’t expect it to be so good! The cichlids were out in force! Such a fun little fish to catch on the UL.
Piscifun ViperX 1000
Handing Magic L 4’6”
4lb yo Zuri hybrid line
BG1 jighead in 1.5g
Mule fishing horsefly: ranch hand.
Same bait caught all 25+ fish today. Some photos for yall! Tight lines!
Got my ultralight kastking zephyr setup in earlier this week. Spooled it up with 2lb SOS line.
Was able to take it out yesterday for a couple hours. Had a great time with the black and ranch-hand colors. Ate shit slipping in the mud but worth it. Caught these guys along with a few others.
