I had to get minnows at Bear Traxx, so I was at the Grumpy Old Man Hole by 6:45PM. There was a truck parked, but I didn't see anybody so I set up on the SE side. I wasn't there long when Grumpy Old Man Willard showed up in his truck. As he was getting out of the truck I got the first jumpin bullhead of the night. Talked to Willard for a bit then he went to check and see if somebody was on the Northside. Sure enough, there was somebody there but he said he didn't catch anything. The guy never did come fish the Southside, so maybe he tried it earlier and didn't get anything.
While fishing for dogfish with the red/black Havoc Pit Boss I had a fish in the cattail stocks bite 6 times but never hook up. Bowfin maybe??? Anyway, I got a few jumpin bullheads on the Pit Boss and a beetle spin. By 7:45PM the action died.
I was fishing the pink Cubby and had a few very light nibbles that didn't take it. Finally, when it was quite dark the bobber went down but I missed it. I put the light on that rods bobber and had another bite, but missed it. Eventually, I switched up to the Lindy Lighted Bobber with the Custom Jigs and Spins Glow Demon. I managed to get two 12" silver bullheads on that. Here's the 1st one.
6 jumpin bullheads
2 silver bullheads
