I only had about an hour yesterday before dark at a small 7 acre pond.  Struck out with traps and flukes before tying on a white buzz bait (it seemed a little ridiculous when I tied it on).  Anyway I'm pulling it parallel to the shore in about 2 feet of water when it got smashed by a four pound 15 ounce fattie.  I was a little disappointed that it didn't quite go five pounds but it was my biggest fish to date.

A camera and learning how to post pictures are my next items of business.

Way too go newfisherman,  I also fished this weekend and didn't land a thing.  But had a ball trying, sounds like a great fish here in SE kansas we don't have the 10 pound plus fish so I'm always excited about a 5 pounder.  Congrats and tightlines!

way to go, learn how to post pictures would like to see your bass

It's just a story without pics.  I hope to get a new PB this year.
