Went to one of my honey holes from 3:30-5 that i been fishing for years and found fresh "NO PARKING" signs on the side street and the lot, :mad: flipped out then decided to park anyway. Used only several different color trout mags, on around my 5th cast nailed a 16.5" bow. Later on got a 14.5" brook first cast after changing colors, a white sucker a while later. Changed colors again and on the first cast hooked a decent bow but dropped it halfway in. C&R but no "P", couldnt take pics bc i forgot my phone in the car :( not bad for the little time i had out on the water.

colors?
first was on orange, second on black, sucker also on black and the one lost was on white/chartruse. i was using pink for a while after the first fish bc the orange got torn up and useless. no hits for half an hour until i switched to black and got number 2 on the first cast.

I know you use them alot, is there a color you feel is most productive?

For trout I used to only use white and that worked ok most the time, but this year i've been having the best results with orange. White/chartruse is great for crappies.
