My boss took me out today on a very private, stocked pond that his Grandfather is part of a club on.

We had a johnboat, and started beating the banks. I caught 4 on a wacky rigged senko. We then moved to an area FULL of lily pads. The entire time on the pond, you could hear bass blowing up in the middle of the lily pad sea. It was like a BamaBass "Topwater Strikes" vid with just the sound.

It was the first time I'd ever gotten on a good lily pad bite. I caught 8 or 9 hopping a fluke over the pads, and my boss caught 3 or 4. I didn't have my frog with me,  although I did catch one on a buzzbait. I lost count of the exact number I caught, but they were amazingly hard, violent strikes and for the 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 pound size, they fought like monsters. It was a blast.

He said that the fishing was really, really slow for that pond. He told me if you get on a good bite there, you can not only catch 25+ fish, they are usually better fish over 2 1/2 and they almost always catch one over 4 pounds. On any other pond, I wouldn't believe him, but I totally do. I must have seen over 100 bass jump out over the lily pads chasing something down. Couldn't believe it.

I can't wait to get back there!

I got some pics, but felt to lazy to upload them ;). I'll see if I can get them posted. Haven't done it from my phone yet.

Good going! Sometimes you just get so busy catching that you forget to take a pic.

I realized that my original post was not very coherent, so I revised it.
