Park Report

[Fishinokie1]

Got done with the honey do's (not all, I think more were added to the list) so I went down to the park for about an hour. The bass are right on the bank. Lots of them! Used old faithfull, 4" black power worm, weightless. I managed to catch 3 that were nice size by sight fishing. You have to move slowly, the water is clear and they spook easily. Was havig a great time and then I saw "THE ONE". I think I will call him "Walter". I would have to guess it was pushing close to 4 lbs. I bugged that thing for over 20 min. and could not get it to even look at the worm. It is nice to see the river picking up. I can't wait to take the kids out there. Bluegill were everywhere. Great place to keep the kids entertained, self included!

I am heading back out Friday to see if I can convince Walter bite. If anyone else happens to catch him first, please remember to release so others can enjoy the same experience in the future!
