jhammer 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2011 I always thought Friday the 13th was bad luck, but apparently it's all superstition. We had a series of bad storms roll through this afternoon, and some more were on the way. I managed to sneak in some fishing for about an hour until a loud clap of thunder signaled the end of my adventure. Since we had some storms and rain roll through, I didn't expect to catch much. The ponds were nice and still, so I tied on a foam ant to try fishing on the surface. The action was HOT! I was getting strikes on almost every cast. I caught 5 Bluegill and 3 Largemouth Bass. One of the bass was quite a porker! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
