It's been awhile since I went fishing and getting some pics for @knowledge-seeker's contest was the perfect excuse!
The Good
I caught 6 bass in about an hour.
As you can see, there was about 12 feet of moss out from the bank.
That's why it was a buzzbait evening...
The Bad
Not only did I lose a topwater frog
- Holy Moly I just looked it up and those things run $9.69 now!!!
I was unable to entice any catfish to bite.
I tried some of this stink bait and worms...
The Ugly
The neighbors longhorns came to get a drink.
I say "the ugly" because the pic did not focus.... sorry...

Those are some really beautiful bass! If you can get your hands on one of those cows, then it is surf-n-turf- time! lol

Six bass in an hour sounds pretty good to me, but what do I know? Can you catch them faster?
At least it wasn't the $99 camera lure you lost.
Do you have any catch and release rules? Fish limits? I ask because Oregon has them, but some states don't. I'm guessing you have to get a fishing license to fish, too, right?

I won't need a fishing license until I turn 16.
You have to have one even if you are fishing on a pond on your property.
The water wasn't that deep. I could have shed some clothes and gone after it... haha

Okay, so it sounds pretty similar to the laws we have here. Maybe it's universal now. I was kind of hoping some place was the last bastion of freedom when it came to fishing. It's dumb that you have to have a license to fish your own property, and I really think the fisherman should be able to decide what they want to hold onto and what they want to put back. Unless they've got the fish police hanging over their shoulder, how is any of this even enforceable? Fishermen ratting on fishermen?
Oh, well. I don't go very often (once every 10 years maybe), so what's it to me? Just another thing, along with hunting, that the state regulates because they want to control every aspect of life, so they charge people to do what they could do on their own.

It looks like you had some luck with the fishing! There is nothing like spending a relaxing day out by the water with a fishing pole in hand. Great Job!
