Got told about a lake last week. It's just 35 miles north of us but had no idea it was out there. Gave it a try yesterday morning. Went out there early so I could get back for the game at noon. Had rain and storms previous couple of days and forecast was overcast all day, so was hopeful of several bites. What a great find it was. Looks different to most lakes in this area, with the amount of trees in the water felt more like being in the swamps of the deep south. In five hours we didn't see or hear a soul its so far off the road not even a distant vehicle. We must've caught around 30 fish, bass and perch but nothing real big. A great day all round.

I've never been bass fishing, heard it's fun. Got a couple of places nearish, need to give it a try

Don’t you need a big fuck off boat and cross the lake at 100 mph to do that mate?

Caught my first ever Barbel yesterday, it was only about a pound and a half and from a lake but a Barbel none the less.

Boats too slow.

Get in there, mate. We will get you a river one when you're ready.

I prefer to fish on topwater for bass, I like how they strike. They are fun to catch. Not so much though when you know it's a good fish on, they jump and spit the plug back at you.

Nah, I prefer a more sedate way of enjoying the river

where is that mate? Looks a lovely trout stream. You certainly seem to have enough cool boxes for the beer.
