Normally I’m working 7 days a week this time of the year to get our hay up, but we had enough rain that I got a day off. I fished our old pond. Really happy to see the bluegills. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/G1VONR5.jpg) I caught a pile of small bass of all sizes. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/cUMVqjF.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/4KQXypv.jpg) ![[Linked Image from ]]( https://i.imgur.com/zHClKKl.jpg) I only managed to land one big bass. ![[Linked Image from ]]( https://i.imgur.com/pziBOKV.jpg) A little thin, but our males just stopped guarding the fry. The younger bass seem to be in good shape, so I’m blaming this on the spawn. I caught some big crappie, but no small ones. Pretty sure they are just helping feed the bass. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/tVXKBKH.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/XaTlwHP.jpg) ![[Linked Image from ]]( https://i.imgur.com/3dKHZQh.jpg) Another decent bluegill. ![[Linked Image from ]]( https://i.imgur.com/IVn7YuS.jpg) And a surprise. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/3ngRkDL.jpg) I put a few trout in this spring, because I thought the old ones were gone. I was wrong. Not a great picture, but probably 22 inches. Mostly concerned with getting him back in the water.

Outstanding report!!!
I always felt one of the joys of having a diverse pond was never really knowing what you might hook into.
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."
