Adams Fish Pond - Taylorsville, NC

FISHING NEWS : April 28, 2008

We need the rain here but it sure does interrupt fishing for some people. Some however think that it just makes fishing better and never stop to find a dry spot.

The catch this week was about average. We weighed in nine fish over twenty pounds with the largest one at forty pounds, nine ounces. Two people had rods pulled in but were recovered. The forty pounder got everyone's attention because of the long runs it made and the time it took to bring it to the net.

The big silver flathead that we call the Gray Ghost has not been caught yet, and the bounty continues to rise. Someone will out fox him one day.

Looking for warmer weather with clear sky next weekend and better fishing.
Bob
