Pond off Rt. 7 and Claiborne
I went out today for about 2 hours after school. Started off throwin a blue back lipless crankbait and was able to pull out 3 decent bass (14-16 inches). These 3 fish were all stacked on a point and it seemed like every strike was within 10 feet of the shore. I then switched over to a spinner bait (white with copper blade) and wacky worm (green 4'' senko with black flake) and was able to pick off 3 more (two on a spinnerbait and one on wacky).
I was working a spinnerbait parallel to shore and got bit short (didn't have a trailer hook) so i burned it back in and flipped the wacky rig to the strike zone and nailed the fish I lost originally 
. I got a kick out of it...
All in all pretty good evening, and sorry didn't bring my camera.
Oh and today was the first day I noticed the frogs croakin as it got dark. Can't wait till things really start to heat up.

Re: Pond off Rt. 7 and Claiborne
I'm guessing this is the same little pond near my church
I finally had a chance to fish there this past Sunday. Pulled out about 10 bass, with the largest one being maybe 2lb? 2 1/2? Who knows - I didn't have my scale.
Fell for a spinnerbait near the rocks.

Re: Pond off Rt. 7 and Claiborne
Andy is right - I saw deer tracks all over the place, I imagine it's a local water hole for all the animals. I was cautious and checked myself when I left. Looks like a perfect place to pick up plenty of ticks!
