Took off work for the swamp pond today. Bright sun, partly cloudy, low-to-mid-90's, little wind.
Fished for two hours without a bite--Baby Bass, buzzbait, soft jerkbait, and a big topwater plug--nada. At 12:30 PM, I pitched a BB next to two stumps in 9' of water and felt a bite. Landed a 4 lb., 12 ozer and she was 24" long.
Two more hours go by without any bites and I'm headed back to the truck when I pitched the BB into 5' of water near a bank and a 6.0 lber--24" too(?) grabbed the BB. Stuck her right in the tongue pad whereas, the 4/12 got stuck in the roof of her mouth.
Hot and sweaty but happy for the two Bass, I headed home to Warner Robins.
4/12---24" (http://www.f150online.com/galleries/pictureview.cfm?pnum=131388&anum=3208)
Again (http://www.f150online.com/galleries/pictureview.cfm?pnum=131389&anum=3208)
6.0---24"? (http://www.f150online.com/galleries/pictureview.cfm?pnum=131390&anum=3208)
