Secret Pond, 5/28/19

Debbie and I hooked up the Jon boat and headed over to the private spot we call the "Secret Pond" this evening around 5pm. We fished until just before dark, and loaded out. Great evening! Water temp in this shallow pond was 92 degrees!! We caught some nice bluegill and several LMB. I was getting lots of slaps on a Ribit frog rigged weedless and worked as topwater and managed to get a hookset on a few. They're just beginning to show interest in top water baits, and still aren't making aggressive hits. Debbie was working soft plastic worms and really producing...that is still the "go to" bait in a lot of these ponds. She hit one that broke the 12 lb mono on her rig as it got right to the boat. It was a fatty, but didn't want any part of being netted and having her photo taken :-) . Here's a few photos...
