Fishing was SLOW today. Even the bluegills were not biting the way they normally do.  Worked the tree line in Walnut creek looking for gills again.  Popper was only getting a few hits, so I threw on a small white spider.  Only caught one with that, so I tried the black wooly bugger.  Got a few more, but it took forever.

Caught two more cats on the bugger.  They were in the same area as the bluegills.  Of course the first one stuck me, even though I had on the high tech orange glove.  The mudcat was pretty big, so I had to use the net on him. (Found out my aluminum net floats.)  Tried the chartreuse bugger, but only got on bluegill with it.

Heard something pop up behind me, so I grabbed my spinning reel with the road runner and threw it towards the noise.  Got a nice bass.

Caught 10 panfish, 2 bass, and 2 catfish.
