Lake Garda - 5/4/12
Message:
So I had a little time to spare on my way back home from work today. I told my girlfriend to pack up my fishing gear and I would meet her at her friends house. Hit a Lake Garda in Burlington/Unionville today and had permission as well (great to know people in LGIA!)... Here's an OK photo of the area...the lake was drawn down, but I was able to walk around shore and fish about 3-4 different spots.

It started to get hot because the sun was on me...and I was also still in my dress work pants so that didn't help. I used a greenish perch colored 4" Rapala Husky Jerk and was casting out in different directions. Within a few minutes I got my first cannibal yellow perch...

I took the photo and soon released it.

I casted around the area and was able to land another small 8" or so bass. Then another two bass, one was 10" and the other was 13".

On my way back to the house, I noticed a snake moving across the pavement lol. I was going to take a picture, but I had my hands full carrying stuff back. It was a nice 45 minutes of fishing. Normally I don't get to fish private lakes so it was nice to get out. Unfortunately my boat was too big to take there (carry in only), but I was happy with fishing from shore.

Nice job! What type of snake was it you saw? I haven't seen any garters or northern waters yet so far this spring.
