It's obviously unseasonably warm here this year(thanks #global warming)...I took one of my daughters down to the pond a couple of days ago and threw some plastic worms into open water...in Feb....In Iowa....Awesome.
The water was crisp clear and we could see where the fish were and weren't, which has only resulted in my desire to build some additional structure to sink.... Anyway, she managed to winch in our first fish of the year which was a respectable bass. Entering year 4 of my pond and I'm thinking this is the first summer where I might have a legit shot at a 5lb bass in the pond. My guess is 4 will stop them this year....but there is a chance which is exciting. Catching a 7lb bass from the pond I built will be one of my best days. |

My Brother in Law keeps sending me photo's of 10-11 lb bass he's catching at Lake Toho in Kissimmee. He's catching 3-4 that size every day for the last month.

Really? How big? I have always wanted to go there but just haven't since I am on the KS side. Seems like a good place for my kayak. It's pretty heavily fished isn't it?

They were all under 4lbs but good fishing anyway. Yes it's always pretty crowded but there are 11 or 12 little ponds out there they call lakes. It's good fishing if the water is up and the spillways are working.

There is definitely nothing wrong with that kind of fishing action. Stripers and wipers are some of the hardest fighters out there.

Great article in the KC Star about Blue Catfish conversation. I'd like to see the same thing with Flathead too. |
