Hi Folks, Ran the boat yesterday afternoon for smallmouth bass with clients. Visited a small pond/lake that does not see a lot fishing traffic.  Undeveloped, pristine, and quiet. Beautiful day as the humid air has finally pushed on out.  There was some thunder storm activity around the region yesterday but managed to avoid them.  Good steady wind from the south that pushed the boat around a bit.  The surface temperature was 75 degrees.  We worked shady shore lines in 12' of water that were lined with lilly pads and downed wood.  All a hard bottom.  We had two large smallmouth gobble up a yellow perch Rapala off the surface.  We landed one of the two after a pretty good battle.  The rest of our fish were caught with a 5" Goby sparkle Senko on a #2 off set worm hook.  The prize of the day was a fat healthy looking 18" smallmouth that did not want to come to the boat.  It appeared that the bass in this particular were on steroids or something.  Incredibly hard fighting fish.  Of course, all of the ones we caught had no sign of being pricked previously.  Off to chase river bass this morning.  Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home.  Have Fun, Willy Read More
