Yea I actually believe I did it the day before. I guess I put my pole together tighter than I realized cuz I had a very hard time pulling it apart when finished. But no worries went out and bought another microlight today and sent that pole to get fixed. I plan on Fishing SAT and Sunday need my microlight.

I was talking to a old friend today who I hadn't spoken to in a long time he wanted to go fishing. I hadn't tried my new microlight yet so Chambers we went. My 1st cast I knew something was wrong on 3rd cast figured out I bought a broken pole but out fishing with old friend so decided to deal with it. Within 15min hooked a 17in bass the fight was hard with a broken pole and 4lb test but I got him took a picture and released him. Only caught 1 almost legal crappie missed many others cuz I couldn't feel the bite but could see my pole bend at the break. My friend caught 1 legal but released it missed another nice 1 at his feet. My uncle showed up caught many short crappie and bass. My friend after seeing all that action said God willing he definitely coming back with the right gear many more times

After a fun 2.5hrs white perch Fishing in Maryland I came back north to a family affair. 2 uncle's 3 cousin's and me wound up at Chambers. End of day totals 4 legal crappie lots of small crappie bass and bluegill. I didn't see what my 1 cousin got he was in a boat with friends but yelling across the lake I gather they catch much

Crappie are moving in schools close to shore now . Find any structure and fish until they pass through. Me and my cousin would catch 3-4 in row then nothing move to different spot same thing. More you move more fish you catch
