Did you weigh those fish? they are nice ones no doubt about it, but i dont know if they are 4 pounds maybe just a bad picture either way nice catch! Maybe tomorrow evening? I am going to a private pond in Amelia tomorrow morning and fishing for a few hours. I had fun at the private pond this morning, it didn't produce like usual but caught 2 good, around 4lb bass, 5 other 1-2 pounders, about 6 nice crappie, and 2 bluegill. The owner didn't know how the bluegill got in his pond, haha. Here are 2 pictures of the biggest bass, its all i took.

Your gonna do it wayne! You know briery all too well!

I read how succesfull you are there and i swear your gonna catch the next state record! I know the new state record is in that place!

Wayne your such a modest guy and your posts are alwasy super helpful! out of curiostiy whats the biggest fish youve caught in briery?

do you get weights on your fish ever? the fish you posts are pigs!

ive caught more than a few nices ones in the grove it was much better last year now its all about new ponds!

yeah its the kind of line i use on a dropshot rig

In that pond we have caught 9 5s 4 6s and 1 7. mostly on 6 pound flourocarbon thats my best hint for ya!

I hate letting that grove pond out of the bag. Not the one your fishing the one in the grove holds some nice fish! heres a little taste of what can be had in there. And we have caught much bigger than this :-?

my heart always skips a beat when i feel a nice fish.

only had an hour and It was a great hour caught a 5.75 and a 4 pounder. the texas rig swim senko did most of the work did catch one small jig fish though. heres the 5.75 she was a pretty fish. sorry for the awful phone quality but it still shows the fish

I see your from richmond as well what spots did you hit mind sharing? I see you go to james river I'll be a senior at monacan this year.

I would be interseted in this club as well! more information would be great

Told you about the top water at pochohontas! and dont set the hook so fast on frogs. wait till you feel the weight of the fish to set the hook.

The dam would be to your right from the boat landing. My favorite topwater out there is deffinatelly the rage toad but any weedless frog that you can throw deeper into the holes in the lilly pads will work fine. the shakey head is a very effective technique. heres an article on it. the website this article is on is also a fishing forum just for the state of virginia. http://www.fishingva.com/tactics/bass/shakyhead.html

Sam, what are the ponds along route 58 west of ashland? Intersted in those! Have you had luck on them before? details maybe?

i also live in midlothain. ponds around here are somewhat scarce. the best ponds i know about are the ponds in insbrook lake rooty.

my dad and i fish pochohantas all the time! summer mornings there the top water action can be insane! we went out last week and did okay shakey head and crankbait. fish the deeper sections near the dam. there are some hawgs in pochohantas my dad broke off a deff 7 plus before and weve caught multiple in the 3 pound class. its a decet fishery that doesnt get much pressure! give it another shot and have fun!

Does anyone have much expierence with these rods. I am thinking about purchasing a few and would like to hear what you guys think.

I think its alot of prefrence but if your going with braid you should go with a flouro leader. Most people who throw swim baits opt. for flouro,

It is a pond back in a devolpment that some old lady spends her whole day watching and calling the cops which is totally lame. But it is seriously no more than 300 yards from my house so after numerous emails to a realtor I have permision to fish on one lot that is located in the worst part of the pond.I wish this pond was public and I could even fish the deeper end of it which i know holds some even nicer ones.

and another

After only about 15 small ones this one was alot of fun! Dont know weight but it was a hawg.

Yeah I would love to meet you out there sometime! Ill let you know next time I'm headed out
