Mouse Bass

My Monday secret pond owner is out for the season with a broken leg.  However, my brother has access to a different secret pond, and has been nice enough to let me join him occasionally.

Yesterday, the fishing was a little slow compared with some other days.  (We were only catching about 25 bass instead of the usual 50.)  So Jerry thought he would try using a different lure.  He dug in his tackle box, and came out with a plastic mouse.  My brother has always been a joker, so I laughed when he tied the mouse on his line, and casted it in the weeds near the shoreline.  Obviously, he got the last laugh.  You can see the mouse in the fishes mouth.  Not sure if this a testament to how smart my brother is, or how dumb the fish is.


As I mentioned, the quantity of our catch was a little lower yesterday, but the quality was pretty good.

 According to my brother's un-certified scale, that was a 4.3 lb bass
