Slow....Pic of Beast Added
Message:
Decided to give Seaside a rest Friday and hit Mondo Pond with my 5'6" ML setup. Arrived just before 5pm to find more weeds have grown at the main pond and most of the smaller pond covered with those floating algae seeds. In weedy areas I tried playing a slow gliding and jerking motion with a Texas rigged 3" green tube but didn't see or feel any bass or pickerel take it. Areas with mostly open water had me throwing topwater and a shad SSR-5, while I stuck with topwater in the smaller pond. 3 certain topwaters I used were a moss back shiner XRW-9, custom painted Heddon Spit'n Image, and Ozark Mountains Woodchopper. The 1 lure bass showed interest in, as it has been, was the custom painted Heddon. Did a number of retrieves until I found what they were most interested in, which was slow walk the dog with aggressive spitting and chugging. Had 4 explosions, lost 1, and had a huge swirl as I waited for the ripples to move after casting. Hit the road just before 8:30pm. On one of my last stops I saw a MONSTER bullfrog! All I kept thinking was a 6 pound largemouth or 4 pound chain pickerel! I could even picture an owl swooping down at it at night, a great blue heron harpooning it, or a large snapping turtle crushing it.

You surely can see that huge mouth and face with those big eyes!

Chipmunks and smaller frogs too! I'd love to see a 6 pound pig or 4 pond gator nail this thing! Even a great blue heron puncturing it with its beak, bird of prey swooping down at it, or a snapping turtle crushing it!
