I won't refuse to go fishing if it's not a full moon, but I will try to get out when the moon is full. I normally have better luck during the full moon, but still catch them all other times of the moon phase.

I was out fishing on July 4th with my son, we had some luck a few 1-2 lb lm bass. We headed back in around 11:00 to the boat ramp / public beach area. There was lots of people in the area swimming and splashing about. I had put my gear away but my son keep making that "last cast". Well we were about 25 feet from the ramp when he landed this bucket mouth.

How is the water level on Rollins pond? Is it still real shallow all around the boat ramp? I haven't been there this year yet but got some nice bass last year.

You should have had it weighted with a certified scale you may of had a new state record. Current record for a black crappie is 17.25 inches 2 lbs. 12.8 oz.
