My friend and I fished out of my boat from about 2:00pm - 5:00pm. We mainly fished worms under a float. I tried a small spinnerbait but had no luck on that.

The first fish came from a worm under a float for my friend and it was a squaw. I had a bite shortly after but wasn't paying attention and missed it. We moved spots and I switched to a chartreuse maribu jig with a piece of worm on the tip and proceeded to catch the bass in the pic. Not huge by any means but it was large for this lake/swamp/pond.

We moved to a different spot and my friend caught a beautiful cutthroat of about 13". The cutthroat makes a confirmed 9 different species I have caught/seen in this lake.

We moved again and my friend had a bite but his line was tangled at the reel. I told him not to worry and to give me the end of his line. He did so and I pulled in his line until I felt tension and I gave a good solid tug. I hooked the fish and hand lined him in and it was a nice little 14" largemouth. We didn't catch anything more after that.

Good day on the water even though we didn't catch any crappie.
