that is correct they stock it every other thursday at 11:30 so they're stocking it today at 11:30 at the lake and this lake doesn't have a name on every map i have come across they just call it "pond"

Default BFF meets BWF

Howdo.

Went out to Alton-Baker Park yesterday, to the first pond downstream from the inlet by the upper boat ramp. Met Boy-who-fishes. He had a nice fat 18 incher nearby. I tried bait, finally switched to lures still nada. I decided to head on out and as I was leaving I stopped and tried a lure, a 1/8 oz. brass Thomas spoon. First cast bam! a 14 incher! Faaaat! Second cast wham! a 13 incher! What happened next was astonishing: as I was pulling the second rainbow in close to shore a 6 or 7 pound largemouth bass attacked the trout. I yanked the 'bow away from the bass and tried to catch the bass but it was not meant to be that time. The bite died down and I headed out.
Anyway, I'll try to post a pic of the two fish. Nice talking to you BWF!



remember: big bait big fish!


BFF

You need to convert it to JPG first, and then probably lower the resolution to something like 800x600.

Thanks for any help.


actually theres plenty of bass in there
if you fish off the mlk/centennial bridge

you'll see plenty of carp..
but if you cast out about 20 feet towards
a tree in the water theres a bunch of bass,blue gill,
and yellow perch there..
and at night if you go under the bridge
there a ton of cat fish..

i useually use a small bobber
with a small jig head with a night crawler
about 2 feet from the bobber..

for the cat fish i use a treble hook
and some raw chicken for the cat fish

If you're referring to editing the photos, it's an easy problem to rectify. I use Paint.NET but there are plenty of other free applications as well.
