smerchly Posted May 22, 2023 Report Share Posted May 22, 2023 My minnows that I've had since October were starting to croke so I took them for a ride to Jordan today . I also had some lively red worms from my mulch pile . I started fishing behind the old tall ship trying to get some perch ....nothing biting there , so I went to the conservation park at Jordan and got a few catfish on the worms . The water is very high again , almost across the road close to the building ....lots of yaks and a rubber raft , some fishing , some paddling the harbour ....very busy place today ! I hope the lake level drops about a foot or so before more damage is done from high winds . Nice to get out , enjoy the sun and fresh air .....next trip will be fishing for carp.

Lukefish99 Posted May 22, 2023 Report Share Posted May 22, 2023 I also got out today at Jordan for some cats. I got about 8 this trip but the fishing has been more challenging than in past years.

I see some places in USA they allow 2 to 3 rods for catfish from shore. It would motivate me more for sit and wait type fishing. 1 hour is my limit without a fish.
