Pond level high due to much rain, overflow pipe is doing what it's designed to do, but amazingly with all the rain the water clarity was almost 3 feet. A week or so back and the clarity was much less, very muddy appearance from the run off.
Was able to watch a few of my largemouth bass cruise about. Tossed in some trout and as always the dinner bell rung!
Landed this little one on a trout, had another larger all the way to the bank but didn't even realize it was on the line as it swam toward me and no resistance on the line so I failed to set the hook as I was taken by surprise, and watched a group of 5 cruising about and by far these 5 were the largest I've seen in quite some time. I tried to land the largest as I felt it was easily 6+ lbs but the darn trout wrapped up in submerged brush and the bass spooked once I stood up to work the line free.
This one was 18", 3.63 lbs, so a RW ratio of 113%.
