Hey, we have proof too

Long Story... Today, 4/9/08, was a good day! RampageBassman and I hit a nice small pond…somewhere in Mid CT! :lol: Water temp….maybe 40-50, not sure. Keep in mind me and Rampage never fished this spot ever before and its our 3rd time on a boat. (Aaannnd no electronics) But we did come with our equipment. We started off in the beginning of the pond…it’s about a 10-12 acre pond. Rampage proceeding to use a small swimbait, which he calls his moneyminnow, and I some soft plastics...few minutes in, Rampage bags a chunky 2lbs followed by some small runts. I in the other hand catch nothing… so I decide to switch to a black and green jig w/no trailer, and bam! Not even a second later I hook a fat Perch, it was about 1-2lbs, I was surprised and rampage thinks it’s the biggest he has ever seen. [img:9c296c2d34]http://98.130.126.242/images/DSC00541.JPG[/img:9c296c2d34] Then the wind started to kick in, boy do we HATE the wind! The last 2 out of 3 trips were disasters because of this wind. We proceeded to drift to the other end of the pond, lost some lures along the way :x …but little did we know that we drifted to a nice over hanging brush and loggy area, so we anchored. After getting a few bites, the feeding frenzy began. Rampage threw a black and blue jig w/one of his “special” trailers, and BAM! It was ON! We catch a couple of 1-2.5 lbs, right off the bat. [img:9c296c2d34]http://98.130.126.242/images/Andre-Web-Forum-2lbs.jpg[/img:9c296c2d34] [img:9c296c2d34]http://98.130.126.242/images/Alex-2lbs.jpg[/img:9c296c2d34] Then out of no where FISH ON! Rampage’s pole bends and takes em’ for a tour around the boat. We knew it was a large one, but no idea how big it was…he proceeds to fight and I help him bring it in, WOW what a Pig! He pulled a Mike Iaconelli and screamed out of the top of his lungs while jumping and scarring all the fish away. “And I think he actually high fived me a few times too! :-/” You gotta keep in mind a year ago we were fishing with bobbers and earthworms off shore! Using Rampage’s crummy, never used old scale that probably only goes to 2lbs, this Pig weights between 5-7lbs, maybe more, the scale kept jumping on its own…but it was jumping between 5-7 no lower… I doubt neither I nor Rampage is going to take a loan out to get a Boga Grip. [img:9c296c2d34]http://98.130.126.242/images/Rampage-67lbs.jpg[/img:9c296c2d34] [img:9c296c2d34]http://98.130.126.242/images/Rampage-67lbs2.jpg[/img:9c296c2d34] [img:9c296c2d34]http://98.130.126.242/images/DSC00563.JPG[/img:9c296c2d34] So after all that craziness we decided to fish the hell out of that brush. And instantly I catch my first Bass of the year a nice 3lber…then another 1.5lber and another 2lber. Rampage also rigged a couple of 2lbs after that. All in all that was the best time we ever had fishng!
