Fishing in Elburn is Great!

When my nephew "Mikey J" comes over for a visit, we just have to go fishing. So on a windy and cold afternoon, we got to "drown some worms" together at the Prairie Highland pond.
My best "kid" fishing rig is a small fluorescent jig tipped with a wax worm. By adding a bubble float for weight, this rig casts nicely into a brisk breeze. Within just a few minutes, we landed this nice "bigmouth" bass. Our "bug-eyed" buddy had a short "out of water" experience, and then went right back in the pond to grow bigger.
Mikey says "Fishing in Elburn is great!" I agree! Posted by Picasa
