This is my first post so I thought I woud make it a good 1. I've fished a farm pond 3 times so far this year and today I finally had a good day. Drilled some holes and put my home made tip-ups in at 3 PM. Fish was a little slow but started getting some bites, kept 3 bass, 1 crappie, 1 gill, & 1 cat. Threw back 1 small bass and 1 rock bass,  lost 2 nice bass at the top of the holes. The biggest 1 got away! LOL :)

Thats a great mixed bag. Dont forget to enter them next time in the online tourny. I think you would have won this week for the bass and cats.

Thank you all for the "Welcome"! I never have much luck on larger lakes so most of my reports will be from ponds. The one I usually fish,  I haven't found the right holes yet. Fish just not in the same spots as years past. I'll find em this weekend.  ;D
