Quick Pond Hop Behind my house 2/5
Had the itch to get out to wet a line. Since travel baseball season is coming to a full swing I havent had much time to get out on the water. I decided to leave the office early to break out the ultra lites in the pond behind my house.
Temp: 77
Partly cloudy skies.
Winds: SE 10-15
Water Clarity: Stained.
Bait of choice: Zman shad fryz in the electric chicken color, 1/8 oz big bit baits jig head.
Started pitching a small monkey milk tube jig with pink 1/16 oz jig head 2 ft under a cork. Bites were slow to non existent. Started walked over to another spot and heard a commotion on the edge of the bank. I peeked over the edge and saw a big female bass swimming around on a bed. She had the biggest attitude when anything came close to where I though a bed might be. I picked up my Zman shad Fryz in the Electric Chicken color with an 1/8 oz Big bite baits jig head. A couple of pitches later and she inhaled the jig. I battled her to the bank , took a couple of pics and quickly released her. Started looking for more beds and saw a bunch of fish that were super spooky. Looks like some of the bass are moving up in the pond to start the spawn. I also picked up several good sized slabs up shallow near gator grass. Ended the 2 hour trip with 4 bass and 4 nice sized slabs. Saw a bunch of fish that were moving shallow but were very spooky.
