Had an hour to hit the local pond today, decided to fend off the ticks because the pond is so small there's no wind. I got there and put on the houdini shad, pulled in a 2 pounder, a couple of real tiny ones, including the most aerobatic 1/2 pound bass i've ever seen and then latched into this guy:
Stayed for half an hour longer, but that was the last fish I got. Again, apologies for the crappy pics, hard to tell scale, and I was without scale, but the fish was def. in the high 4 to low 5 range, all in all a pretty good hour spent, I think! _________________ Golf Bravo Romeo - Where there's always a crosswind, but nobody will tell you.

Nice job.
I have been wondering what the heck is a houdini shad. I was looking for them at dicks too!
I just looked it up. Basicly like a super fluke. I have a couple houdini shads bags in the boat and didnt even know it  _________________ Thar aint NO fish in here !!!!!!!! |

Yeah, sorry, I shoulda been clearer w/ that... They do sell them at Dick's, I've been having really great luck with the silver flake top w/ white bottomed ones with the closed tail. _________________ Golf Bravo Romeo - Where there's always a crosswind, but nobody will tell you. |
