10/23/04--Sumo Frog and my Helium and a 4lber--pics

[Lightninrod]

Went down to a pond in a cow pasture in Ashburn, GA today with a friend. Caught a dink and a 1 lber on a Speed Worm. He then caugt a 2 lber on a split-shot worm.

We saw some movment in a little cove near some matted grass. I thew the Speed Worm and buzzed it back over the mat and got a big blow-up but all the Bass got was the worm's tail.

This is about a 7 acre pond with standing Cypress trees scattered about but no jig Bass around them. Underwater mats of grass were around the trees and in clumps most everywhere. Tried a buzzbait, a spinnerbait to no avail along with pitchin' jigs.

Went back to the little cove for another try and that 4 lb Bass smashed the Sumo Frog. Don't know if it was the same Bass I missed before

Nice warm weather--no shirt, no shoes .

Excellent. Up by me right now, it's about 45 degrees.

Should have been a good day because of no sun, complete cloud cover(unlike yesterday?), light breeze but almost no bites. I couldn't solve what they wanted until the last 30 minutes when I caught a dink on a jig. I had been pitchin' one earlier too but couldn't 'buy' a bite. Right after the dink, I caught a 2.9 lber on a black/blue SK Rattlin' Pro jig with a Sweet Beaver trailer.

sd: That was one of my HE70MCs.
