Yep, I was seduced by Jimmy. Caught that one with a grub on a football jig head. I think I would have done better with my fly rod, but I was trying to teach myself how to use gear and plastic. It doesn't seem to be taking though. 90% of my fishing this year has been with my fly rod, whether in the big boat or my kick boat. I always feel cheated when I catch a fish on a spinning rod, it only seems like half a fish compared to the fight you feel with a fly rod.
