Fishing Journal Entry 5

5/5/2016

Today I went fishing with my dad and my son Dakota.  I took them to one of my favorite fishing holes and we had a blast.  The fish were biting a bit on the slow side, but we managed to catch a few.

The temperature was 72 degrees with a clear skies and wind blowing out of the north at 9 miles per hour.  The barometric pressure was 30.01 and dropped to 30.00 before making a u-turn and rising to 30.10.

The water was quite muddy but seems to be clearing up a little bit.  Unfortunately there is more rain in the forecast which will dirty it up even more.

Bass, Fish, Largemouth

After fishing for about three hours the fish count was three and a half for dad (One didn't quite make it to shore, but we got a good look at it.  It was a bit bigger than the one in his picture.)   He caught one bass, one crappie and two channel catfish.  I caught two bass and one crappie.  Cody caught one bluegill.

Together we caught a total of seven fish using minnows, with several more bites we didn't manage to bring to shore....(We won't include dad's half fish in the count, but don't tell him.)
