Topwater 8/16
Message:
Friday afternoon I headed out to see how the topwater bite would be with the high pressure currently effecting the fishing. Got to the ice out pond just before 2pm.
4 lures I tried throwing at the ice out pond included #1 Mepps Dressed Aglia, moss back shiner X-Rap Popper XRP-7, rainbow trout Excalibur Pop-R, and the prop bait that caught me the pig.
The bite ended up being pretty slow. Lost 1 and landed a 1 pounder with the Pop-R.
Later I went to grab a bite to eat and then went to Twin Brooks.
2 lures I decided to concentrate on were the Mepps and prop bait. Also tried throwing a silver shad Jointed Shallow Shad Rap JSSR-7 in some deep areas without much weed cover.
I was surprised to see the bluegills and redbreasts not attacking the Mepps like they usually would. Never had a follower or hit on the JSSR-7. Had many followers and taps on the prop bait, which were mostly smaller bass.
Eventually hit a 1 pound bass on the topwater at the pond that caught me the pig. Last stop at that pond produced a 16" 2 pound 10 ounce largemouth. Caught it in an area with lots of pads and was able to get it through pads with the same setup that landed me the pig.

Hit the road at 6:40pm to check out Glenwood Park.
