Well I had not been fishing since Wednesday night.  That is a long time for me, I usually fish every night.  I live near Indy, so we took the RV to ORP Thursday night for 3 nights of racing and drinking.  Went to the Silver Crown race Thursday, Truck on Friday and Nationwide on Saturday (GO KYLE!!!).  Anyway, 3 days of drinking, playing corn hole, and lots of food with 10 people was a blast.  On Sunday I watched the cup race from home, glad I did not pay for tickets to that horrible race!  By the time it was over I was too tired from the weekend to go out fishing.  So this morning I woke up and went down to the lake.  First cast was at 7:55 and last one was at 8:55 - sun was coming out and getting hot!  

But in that one hour I got 4 bass, nothing huge, but the pic below was the largest one.  It is funny how an hour on the lake can be soooo much fun!

The best part is that it looks like it is about to rain now.  I know a nice little pipe where the bass like to feed after a good rain, so I will probably get back out in a couple of hours for more fun!

Only problem is this fish took my last *** worm I have left!!  Don't know what to use now.

Nice looking bass.

It's never once occured to me to listen to my ipod while fishing... i'll have to incorporate that into my fishing trips from now on.

Nice fish.

Never thought about listening to Ipod either although I like hearing what's going on around me. I wouldn't want to miss the sound of something boiling the surface while I'm listening to Barry Manilow's greatest hits.  8-)

I never go fishing without my Ipod, makes the slow periods go faster.  If you want to hear what is going on around you, just put one speaker in, and leave the other ear for other noises.  However I would suggest leaving both speakers out when the Mannilow songs come on!

Anyway, 3 days of drinking,  playing corn hole, and lots of food with 10 people was a blast.

I don't like the sound of that  ;D

Must mean something different in your area.

I live in Plainfield.  Fishing on a retention pond near my house.  Well it is 14 acres, so some call it a lake.   Sorry about the brickyard, that stunk!

Dont get the wrong idea!  It is the game where you throw a bag full of corn at a board with a hole in it!!

Nice fish...I'm from the Indy area too. Where do you fish? I'm new to fishing but I have been fly fishing sugar creek all summer and catching a lot of smallmouth. I got my new baitcaster and now I'm ready to get some bigguns!  ;D

Come on over, I am in Plainfield and go fishing every night.  I have caught 4 fish over 5 pounds this month, and usually catch 3 to 5 in the 2 to 4 pound range each night.  

Way to go. Nice fish!  ;D

that's great, i can call 'bean bag' ; 'corn-hole' now! My wife's gonna love that one!

You can even go one step further and join the American Cornhole Association.  You get a member card and everything!

Nice Bass!!!!!
