Fish Bork Posted January 28, 2006 Posted January 28, 2006 Went over to Lake Springfield with some worms just messing around catching little bluegills and channel cats. Well about 1/2 hour later an old couple was leaving and asked if I wanted the rest of their shiners. I took them not really thinking I would use them as I didn't think anything of any size was in there this early. Well put a shiner on and within 10 seconds wham!! 2lb cat nice!! well 1/2 hour later I have four nice cats for dinner. (I know what your thinking what are you doing eating cats out of Lake Springfield, I only eat them once or twice a year) Plus an old oriental guy was leaving and has 4, 5-6 pounders and was using cut bluegills as bait. Nice little day of fishing. Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
CaptainT16 Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Good for you fish! I used to live in Springfield and used to fish there, but never really had any luck. Caught a couple of sunfish, but actually that was about it. I used to mainly fish around the warm water inlet there. Always looked like a great spot anyway! "He told us about Christ's disciples being fisherman, and we were left to assume...that all great fishermen on the Sea of Galilee were fly fisherman and that John, the favorite, was a dry-fly fisherman." - Norman Maclean-A River Runs Through It
