Spring Pond 08/09
Message:
Got out on the water this morning at 7:30. On my first cast with a green purple flake forked dinger i got a 12 inch largie around 1 to 1 1/2 lbs . I got him casting next to a weed line just south of the culvert towards the western shore. After many more unsuccesful casts I headed over to the basalt boulder/ pebble beach and threw the green dinger, a few lipless cranks and some assorted geckos and got nothing. I tried around both islands with all of the above baits and was still not catching. I went back to my original spot and tried everything again but still no fish. there were fish eating bugs off the surface the entire time and i threw some frogs but couldnt get any hits. later I actually saw two of the fish that seemed to be eating bugs off the surface and couldn't recognize them. they looked like a bass/carp mixture. what were they?

The big bug-eating fish were probably carp. I'm sorry to hear that the bite was so slow this morning. Now that the water is warmer, I think that you have to fish Spring Pond [i:51e75db000][b:51e75db000]extremely[/b:51e75db000][/i:51e75db000] slowly.

The big fish did look like carp, and I agree that a slower presentation would have produced more fish.
