We got out about 11am, and with the overcast sky, we decided to try topwater. We tried frogs over the grass for about a hour with two short strikes. I picked up a devil horse and on the third cast caught a two pounder. five to ten foot away I caught another two pounder. We fished around this shallow flat for a while then came back to the same spot I caught the first two. My dad threw a tiny torpedo and had a tiny six in bass hit and throw his bait, I threw the devil horse into the boil and had a huge blow up. After battling the fish my dad netted the beast, 6lb on a mickey mouse scale. We fished around for a while longer with a couple short fish. We changed to another location and caught two three pounders on frogs on the first few casts then nothing else. We came back to the flat where we caught the first fish, and dad threw a horney toad on this grass mat in 1-2 fow and the water errupts, grass is flying around small kids are sceaming and wanting their mother, my dad is screaming with this high piched squeel. I net this huge monster and weigh him, 6lb on his mickey mouse scale. Can you tell I'm not used to catching big fish. Any way we call it a day, to take my mother out to eat. great day on the water with my dad.
