We Found An Old Forgotten Pond!

Okay, so Minette and I get on the ranger and we know there's a little

forgotten

pond

, we don't know what's in it, we don't know how long it's been since it was fished, it might not have anything in it, it might be full of fish. I don't know, but let's go look for them, I hope so, oh, there it is, what do you think? What does it have inside? Who knows? Let's find out. Let's look at our bait and rig. So this is what we're using for bait, we caught some crickets that are hanging around our old tool shed and they look nice and juicy, that's going to be bait, so let me show you what we're going to use for the hook weights and for the forks, everything here. let's just go with the eagle claw uh I don't know the number if this is number three or four uh wing hook I don't know I'll have to check that and let you know but let's use that uh on the net line here she's got a little quick swivel here I'm going to leave it on and there's probably going to be enough weight on that plus the hook we're just going to use a little thin cork here it's weighted at the end make sure it's upright to start with.

I'm not going to put it too deep. I don't know how deep the water is or what kind of obstacles and things are there, but let's get started. Out with about uh I don't know a little bit more than a foot let's see if we can catch one of these uh cricket the rest got it right so there you have it here we go first we throw in an old derelict.

pond

, okay, it should be jumping not a bite, but it looks like maybe a little bite or that cricket is moving soon got a bite not fast enough, maybe they didn't take a little longer this time, okay, how many years Have fish like this cost?

Dad no, I think you've got my cricket, let's see, yeah, we've got our cricket, I need another cricket, okay, second cast, he already got the bite, that was a good hit of fish there, yeah, I gotta throw my shyster in a couple of times, yeah, put it back in Not much cricket left, but you still get points over the spot right where it was, it looked like a decent sized wing before we saw them, let's try it again, just move it away from it slowly, maybe pick it up and set it up. back out there a little higher a little further just a little there you go oh you got it, those are fast maybe try it a little further away hey, there's plenty of cricket left well at least there's something here, I believe you I got it Oh, it's a little hard to hook that guy up, are you still playing with me?

Well, he won't be able to play cricket anymore. Oh, that's good, there's no way to catch him, at least he'll catch me. You got it, you got it, you got it. I don't know how good I have it, well let's put your mind at ease now, I don't really like my tracker, oh what a good bleed deal, bring it on, oh it's practically picking it up, oh it's pretty good, well eat it, yeah , old. Abandoned pond, you have a bluegill, how about a healthy look? Yes, good fish, okay, let's free it from the hook. It took me a lot of times to catch this fool.

Yes, what are you doing? I'm going to get something. Okay, she'll get the cricket back, let's see. You can catch another one now, another bite, yeah, nice two, hey, that's a little guy coming up with it, you thought, you can't escape, buddy, I'll walk over and watch this here, they crash here, almost always though, okay Oh. I'm getting a bite, it still hits pretty big there, yeah, oh you got it, oh no, I got that little flat bite. I'm still hanging on to this little bit that might be the trick to catching them like a bit of a cricket well I think they want a little more bring me a cricket here I'm not sure exactly what kind of cricket it is but anyway yeah , they are not little black crickets, are we going to grow them?

Well, they didn't fool me. Okay, you got it, I bought her three for me, bro, oh, sweetie, you wanna fish right here, baby, no, she's out fishing me bad, four now, four to one, if it was a competition, okay, just I will be your second. I'll catch 'em, you'll cook 'em good, uh-oh, I think I went over your line, okay, I'm not going to have any use for a big bass over there anyway until b, I'm going back, oh yeah, doing 1500, I'm going to describe that next time and part of my deal is that my hook is a little bigger than yours I probably should have put a smaller hook on it man you need to get some bags it looks like it has balls on it well I might as well stay here Same, huh, oh, yeah.

I don't know, oh, I have the biggest one yet. Someone might have more, but I have the biggest one. Well, I'm about to take a bath, not too bad for an old abandoned pond, so we stop fishing with crickets, but that's throwing away. a little h and uh my dad has been hand tying some crappie jigs so I'll put one of those on I don't know if you can see it I put one of those on and I caught that little bass so not bad well He didn't do too bad, whatever we do, one bass will be enough to eat this afternoon, yeah, thanks for watching, hey, better than turkey hunting so far, we've had a successful day the first time we fished this little pond that we went out.
