hit up sangchris again for some overcast fishing! the wind was wild, but managed to snag 2 pike, one about 4 lbs and another smaller one. they were biting on spoons. it was exhilarating battling with them in the choppy water. feeling pretty accomplished today!

fished sangchris lake today and it was nice to see the sun peeking through the clouds! caught a big 5 lb bass on a crankbait. the wind picked up in the afternoon which made it a bit tricky, but i was stoked to get that big one. felt like it was my lucky day!

good day fishing at sangchris. even with some patchy rain, i caught a few nice bluegills. used a float rig and some worms. nothing huge but lots of bites! weather was warmer so that made it enjoyable, and the park wasn’t crowded. worth the trip for sure!

went to sangchris today, it was pouring like crazy at times. only snagged a small catfish but at least it was fun using my new baitcaster! the wind was a bit strong, but i found a sheltered cove. left the lake soaked but with a smile. sometimes it’s all about those little moments.

another wet day at sangchris, the rain just wouldn’t let up. but i’m stubborn so i stayed out. caught one decent bass, around 3 lbs on a spinnerbait. not much else, just a lot of waiting for a bite! kind of a bummer but hey, at least i wasn’t stuck at home, right?
