First run of the year

Our once lively fishing hole is now calm and shallow, quiet and somewhat peaceful. But, i noticed it was too peaceful. I only spent an hour and a half but i didn't see any carp in sight. The only noise was from a pair of ducks that kept playing in the water, splashing each other, like toddlers in the kiddy pool. So, i decided to put a popper on, and see if i could rouse some bluegills up, which also ended up with no bites or anything. i finally called it quits for the evening as I was getting hungry. Who know maybe another week or so of this warm sunny weather will kick those carp into spawning gear as for after that, it will be a fun time catching them. Well until next time....
