Got out to the pond today and tossed some RT Shads around some slop and pads. Topwater bites always make for a fun day.

Caught five on the Shads, went through the only pack I bought :'( Oh well, I'll just have to buy some more packs ;D

After that, I started swimming a weightless Blue Fleck Thumper around some shallow wood cover and weed patches, mostly targeting the isolated weed patches. Nothin' doin', so I made one last cast down the bank to my left and started swimming the Thumper along the edge of some weeds.

Saw a swirl, followed by a hit. Set the hook, kept her from jumping, you know the drill. Only had the cell phone, as the real camera was with my dad at work.

Measured +/- 21 inches. REALLY skinny for this pond, I hope she goes and catches some big 'gills so the next time we meet she'll be 5 pounds instead of 4.10.

Sounds like a great start Fat-G   Glad you're havin' fun with'em
