A few years back there were many many small bass. Last time there I caught absolutely nothing. It gets really weed choaked by July.

6/16/2008 5:03:00 PMOh yeah, I let him go on his happy way after a few pics. He had some meaty legs. No wonder people eat them. I didn't know that that's big for a bullfrog. That's the first one I've ever held. He was too cool!
Yeah, it's too bad about the bass. Maybe the people fishing it haven't been releasing them. Nothing like shooting yourself in the foot. A few years ago out there I'd see baby bass like crazy, Never any baby perch. Would catch a lot of small bass, with the occasional big one mixed in. Maybe the bass haven't spawned yet. Anyone think that's a possibility?
Fished it lately Bob?

Never seen one that big around here. I was out night fishing on Ohop some time back, just turned the lantern down and kept looking behind me for any critters or tweakers sneaking up on me. This frog about 5 feet away in the cattails started croaking...nearly gave me a heart attack! Stupid frog! :-D
