Got Permission To Fish A Private Lake

Well, I guess you'd call it private.  You need written permission from the owner to fish it but to get permission, all you have to do is ask.  Anyway, the wife and I just got back from our first trip there.  She caught like 7 or 8 with her T-rigged lizard mostly around lily pads and I caught 2 on a Rapala Skitterwalk in deeper water and 1 on a Wally World spinnerbait by a downed tree and we both missed maybe 2 or 3.  I borrowed one of her lizards but for some reason it wasn't working for me.  I couldn't buy a bite with it.  The fish weren't all that big.  Average was maybe around 12 inches with a few that were a little better but it was the best numbers day we've had.  We even doubled up at one point.  I got mine in and shouted down the bank to get her attention and held my fish up and then she held hers up right back at me.  We were pretty far apart so we both ran towards each other and she held em both up for the picture (mine is the one in her left hand).  I'm excited to go back again and see if the lake is always on like that.

Outstanding!

 

You have a special lady for a wife. Keep her!

 

If you are catching the smaller bass then the pond has not had a harvest and the smaller bass will drive you nuts. But their moms and dads are there and they should be a nice size.

 

Keep on fishing and sooner or later you our your lady will nail one of the big ladies.

 

And when that happens post the pic.
