Franklin Farm Ponds-Herndon, VA Tues. June 16th

[RedskinsBassmaster]

This is a long shot I know---

Fished pond off of Franklin Farm road(visible from street and has a small dock, not sure of name) on Tuesday. To the 2 kids I ran into, I was the guy who gave you a few pointers, some Gamakatsu hooks, and senkos. Before I left, when we were trying to get you out of that tree without success, I left the box of all my hooks, tungsten, shakey heads, football jig heads, etc. on the dock. You guys seemed like good kids and I know if you see this you will do the right thing. Please send me a PM and I will come pick it up, I will have a reward for sure! Also, I've been out there everyday since in hopes of running into you, will be out tonight and next week, same times 6-730ish. I will be extremely, extremely, grateful-that stuff is not cheap!! Trying to put off a trip to Dicks before the tourney on Sunday.

Here's to hoping you check out the website I told you about and see this post.

Thanks,

Matt

P.S. For those hoping for a report---caught 11, nothing over 2.5 lbs. All were caught on minus 1 and chigger craw or baby brush hog on a shakeyhead.

I dont know that they are yet, or if they will be for that matter. They are both in middle school and fairly new to bass fishing, I spent about an hour teaching them a few things and talking about baits, techniques, etc. and I recommended BR as a great place to gain some knowledge and read some info from some local anglers. I posted in hopes that they heeded my advice and have checked it out. As I said it's a long shot, but they seemed very eager to learn.
