I celebrated my 40th last Wednesday.   It has been a tradition of my family and my wife's best friends family to camp to celebrate my birthday.   The kids had a great time.  My daughter Eva, and her daughter Avery share the same birthday 1 year apart. We fished at a lake separated by a street from our campsite.   Avery had never caught a fish before.  That changed this weekend.  Thanks to @Johnsfolly and his little plastic lure.  We even had doubles.  Both girls caught a fish at the same time.  Avery out caught all of us.   I squeeked out 1 green sunfish.  My 11 year old boy really, really wanted to catch a 'big' fish.  We couldn't find a single bass (did not try the ned).  I told him we could use one of the sunfish, cut in half as bait.  We waited until almost dusk, casted as far, as we (he) could.  He waited a while, then supper was ready.  Put his pole in a holder, added a bell and just a few minutes later I seen the pole bend.  I called him, he came running.   He caught his 'big' fish. A good size channel cat.

I have heard that yellow bass, Morone mississippiensis, have been collected in those lakes. That is not a common species in Missouri. I never got up that way to try for them myself.

We have to talk about yellow bass and spotted sunfish and the best time to target them.
