Sometimes the stars align and put together a wonderful fishing weekend. With 3 different fishing places this weekend the fishing was hot and cold.  First off Ward st ponds.  With the weeds in full bloom fishing lures need to have weed gaurds, but using a white spinner bait I was able to hook into a couple nice Large mouth bass.  I saw a few very large bass trolling the shallows.  I will make sure to get back here in a month or so when I can handle being in the water with a float tube.  Remember that this is a catch and release fishing area with artificial flies and lures only.   So snap a quick picture and place those fish back in the water.

The next place was some small random ponds near parks once again small bass, bluegills, and carp was mostly what we saw.  Hooking into nothing more then a pond, but the little guy had a ball.

The last place was some great creek fishing.  I was able with a Mepps Extra deep lure on to entice 4 nice fish to bite.  I saw a lot more but the area we were in was heavily traveled and they were quick to spook.
