Over the last few weeks, I haven't fished much. Rain and a cold/flu have kept me near home.
I do have access to a local pond. About twenty minutes ago, I decided that I was bored, and I would throw 5 casts and see if anything would be hitting.
Of course, the same Bass-colored Rattletrap on which I have caught my last four or five fish (both saltwater and freshwater) was still tied to my rod.
One, two, three, four and on my LAST fifth cast, this fat LM bass hit the 'trap three times. The last time was her undoing. As this 8-acre pond goes, she was a larger/fatter-than-normal catch. It always amazes me how we can throw 50 casts and never get hit, and then a nice fish accommodates my afternoon needs.
