Well, we went out to Shelley pond last night and fished the point from around 5:30-9:30. First cast using a worm and we had a nice probably 15" bass, then nothing for the next 2 hours.
Had a nice guy from Poky come down and fish with us for a bit, he had waders and went out between the two points. Nothing for a while then he caught a 14-15" bass, a smaller 13" maybe 3' from him while he was reeling in, and I hooked a dinky 7" on my rapala.
Fish were jumping all over the place the entire time, but we just couldn't get the majority of them to bite, and we tried quite a few different baits and lures. We'd have fish jump and make a huge splash within 3 or 4 feet of us, very aggrivating, but a blast. Even tried a dry fly with a bobber and could get 2" minnows to pick it off the surface but that was it.
