First fish of season...

While running around a bit today I road my 4wheeler down to the creek, made a few casts but no takers. Creek water was really cold, probably 40-42.
This evening I went to a local farm pond and casted some crank baits and finally got to feel that tug on the end of my line! First cast I saw the bait coming up and a good bass probably 17-18 inches opening its mouth behind it, since I could see the strike happening I messed up and jerked early. After that I caught 3 more bass in the 12-13 inch range. No big ones, the last fish I caught out of the pond was a really big bluegill, probably about a 10incher.
So as the weather warms I'll be posting more and more reports, with pics next time lol...
