I took the day off and fishing my pond before the rains came.
I caught around (20) LMB ranging from 10" to about 18" with the majority of them being say 2-3 lbs. But nothing was really photo-worthy.
I did catch a snapping turtle on a live-shiner which was odd. I had just cast out near some submerged trees, and within about 5 seconds, the bobber went straight down. I set the hook and it was like pulling in a tire, and I was pretty sure I knew it was a turtle.
I hauled it to the side of the boat when it proceeded to start hissing at me. I was like "look dude, I'm going to try and get that hook out of your lip." He just hissed back.
I pulled out my long hemos and grabbed the hook and slid it out.
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
