I went to west lake around 1pm, fished the same area we always fish. The sun was out, the wind was blowing (not as bad as of late,) and the water was some what clear. Most of the fish seemed to come from close to the bottom up to attack my lures. After watching bass pro, I figured I would take Vandams advice and work my spinner near the top of the water about a foot from the surface. WELL that didnt work for the spinnerbait I was using. It could have been the color or side I had on though. This did work however for the daredevil I had on and the swimbait =) I caught a lot of 1 - 2 pound lmb, mainly 2lbs on Daredevil Spro shad swimbait 4in Black/red senko 5in I had some fun for the 2½ hours I was there Oh and I also caught these using the daredevil [img:0a59bbfeb2]http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/s720x720/545956_10150959706543902_526263901_12948257_889272220_n.jpg[/img:0a59bbfeb2] [img:0a59bbfeb2]http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/s720x720/545956_10150959706593902_526263901_12948259_2066714127_n.jpg[/img:0a59bbfeb2] While I was fishing a baby turtle came to the surface and attempted to climb the rock I was on. The turtle was about the size of a half dollar coin!

The fish slowed down a lot and since I didnt feel like tryign any where else there I packed up and left. ,

That looks like a baby snapping turtle. I found two of them in my garage a couple of years ago, after they apparently hitched a ride in the undercarriage of my car. And Soto, you know that Ball Pond is closed to fishing at the moment, right? The locals are very (i.e., rabidly) protective of the pond. You're lucky they didn't call the DEEP [b:0fe23c919d][i:0fe23c919d]and[/i:0fe23c919d][/b:0fe23c919d] the cops on you.
