This past weekend was largely spent at home and in the kayak on the family pond. It's good to have a few days where I was able to watch the pond wake up with the sun rising and go to bed with the moon over my head as I loaded the kayak into the back of the Element in the dark.
My intent for the weekend was to target largemouth bass but it might have been a little bit early for the top water bite. I had a few boil on surface flies but they weren't as interested as I had hoped.
We did end up catching a few very large bluegill which the children really enjoyed. They really put a bend in that custom Lamiglas Spin/Fly.
Hadley has decided that she is a solo paddler now and takes off on her own with the Versa Board. It's pretty neat to see her so comfortable and independent on the water and t won't be long before Finn will be on his own as well.
It's good to realize that it's a short week and the weekend will be around again before we all know it.
