Managed to stick this chunker this morning on a black/blue Rage Craw. She fought GOOD and almost hung me in some brush. My 50e handled her like a champ! Love the drag system on that reel. Can't wait to spool her up with some flouro.
Nice bass.
Ohhh! That ones HEALTHY... WTG

Lake Nunya!
Very nice catch!!
Nice fish Fat-G, it looks like you've been catching quite a few good fish lately congrats

Fishmaster- Thank you sir, they sure love the Rage Tails!
Reelcrazy- A lot of my ponds are very overfished. Sometimes you can't buy a bite! Once you learn the contour of the bottom and locate any oddities such as rocks, rockpiles, timber, ridges, etc., you can key in on them and usually get a good one or two. Learning that kind of stuff makes you a better fisherman. Give me a fresh pond that never gets fished, however, and I will go to town.

Him? You wonder where I caught HER?
these fish aren't SCC fish put are pond fish. And the rage craws left at SCC if they are attached to monofilament then they deff. aren't Hayden's haha. We actually haven't fished there in the past 3 weeks busy schedules working 40 hours a week ect. I also understand why you want to get on us for fishing ponds, but alot of the times it's the only place we are able to go. At least we are out fishing. I thought other fisherman were supposed to support fishing!? Especially younger guys that have a passion for it! Regardless tight lines to all
Sounds like you 2 guys should get together on Lake Nunyah in Dam Biz, Va. And have a little fish off.
haha
On 7/10/2011 at 9:56 PM, reelcrazy said:i completely support you guys fishing! but when i respond nicely enough with nice fish where did you catch it i get lake nunya ??? the pond thing doesn't bother me i fish ponds when i cant take the boat out, but for you to say its tough to fish a pond is crazy. They can be if there not well kept but thats about the only reason other than some spots not being very accessible. I do give you guys grief for just fishing ponds for that reason seems you guys can land some big ones and take great pics and are very active on the site and thats great ! Most of the time im joking when i say something to you guys and it seems to offend you for some reason so i apologize if i offended you guys but that's how i feel you guys should get in a club and do some tournaments or something y'all can obviously catch fish not doubting that at all
Are you in college?
I was just wondering. You look too old to be in high school. That fish wasn't caught at SCC. It was a private pond.
I agree with you Reelcrazy about how it is easier on ponds, especially private ponds. I guess that seems to be the knee jerk reaction when we see someone have access to private ponds and we don't. I remember the days when i had access to some and even if it did get crowded, they were incredibly fun to fish and the numbers of 5 lb plus fish was wonderful! But, i guess the point is, they have access to it and if I were them i would guard those spots with their lives! It's always fun to see them catching nice bass out of them, and the rest of us jealous anglers must enjoy the posts.
I guess my only pet peeve with these debates is when pond fisherman really hang tight to "it's just as hard if not harder" to catch bass in "this" particular ponds as it is in public lakes. Yes ponds do very, but the likelihood of frequently catching nice bass is increased. But, they are doing great at these ponds and it is fun to watch their progress. It is just a matter of time till they post that 10 pounder! Hopefully they get her on film.
There's no doubt it's a little easier. However, to put it lightly, we're pretty d**n good.
i have access to tons of private ponds i fish them when i dont have access to my boat or time to take the boat out what it boils down to is you are catching nice fish point blank im sorry to even start this whole mess but i stand by my guns with the statement it is too easy to fish private ponds fishing lakes and rivers is just a completely different ball game and i think hookingem can vouch for me there have fun at least your doing something you like to do and catching big fish how could it get any better and no im not in high school i went to manchester 4 years ago
Yea I have to agree with shimmy and reelcrazy about the private pond thing. I have a private pond im allowed to fish and they catch a 6+ # fish atleast once a week and multiple fish of the 2 - 5# range on a daily. I dont know if its just my competiveness or what but I like have to work for a bite. And go through my tackle according to weather conditions. Cause the pond I have permission to fish I can catch fish on the same bait all day any day of the week. Not taking anything from yall or anything by any means. Its just a complete different feeling when you hook up to a 5+ # fish in a public fishery versus.a private stocked pond. But yall are doing good and like shimmy said when the 10#er comes hopefully yall get it on video. Good luck to yall boys and keep on catchin.

Woh, slow down there cowboy. The better you get, the less you'll feel the need to prove it. Just read the posts of some of the big guns around here, you'll rarely see them toot their own horn...and that's putting it "lightly".

I have to agree man that's kinda messed up to say. I know you are joking, but If you think your the best at something you will stop learning and you will fail to become any better! Why cant we all just get along I work for 13 hours and come home to all this arguing!
I just want to fish
Well, I'm in the hospital right now with a Morphine drip. I won't remember saying most of this stuff.
I just like to fish, don't care about the **** measuring anymore.
Sorry if I offended anyone, wasn't trying to.

"Rollin' face" as you would say hhahaHhhaa
This bed is too d**n short, no hot nurses, and I haven't eaten anything in two days. Morphibe is fun, so is Valium.

Wow, sorry gentleman. That was the morphine and valium talking.
Usually wouldn't be that much of an ***, so I apologize. I don't have a boat, so my ponds are all I got. We're gonna make some vids tommorow.
