Had to get some house work done this weekend, but found an opportunity to get out for a few hours Sunday evening and I'm glad I did!  Drove a little further than usual to a lake that is supposed to have some above average sizes and "relatively low fishing pressure".  Launched around 1:30 or so and around 2:30 found my first bite of the day and it was a GOOD ONE.  OF COURSE the big fish of the day came on the Siebert Outdoors jig, dredge brush w/owner hook black/green color with a rage craw trailer.  actually had already made the pitch to cover and was swimming it back when it SLAMMED my jig!  5lb1oz on the scales and a beauty of a fish!

missed a couple more bites after that, one on a spinnerbait and one on a worm.  

But then, about 30 or 40 minutes before dark it really started up.  all the critters were moving and the water started to show some life.  I managed to bag 4 on the Terminator T1 spinnerbait right before dark.  they were 2 at 3# and 2 at 1-1.5#.  each one of them absolutely choked the bait too.  really nice way to spend the evening after doing some solid house work!

Few pics of the big girl and one of the 3's:

I've always been a "Drive a little further for better fishing", kind of guy. Looks like that way of thinking paid off for you as well :)
