I spent a couple days walking the banks of a small pond/lake in Weston Florida. Off topic, but exactly when does a pond become big enough to be called a lake? Anyway, I was using a small jighead and soft plastic frog. Although I did catch a couple of largemouth bass, they were tiny. I was more excited about the bluegill, but especially the spotted tilapia. This was only my second one I ever caught. Pretty cool. Hope you like it.
