I do know that this pond has bass, pickerel, pike, white and yellow perch.
I don't believe it was anything other than a bass, and although it may not break any records, it will break my own personal record.
Imagine being on a flat calm pond, with NO shore access (surrounded by swamp/marsh) and hearing a splash that sounded like someone were able to toss a boulder as high as possible out onto the water.
Now imagine you're out on this pond, and didn't know that this size fish was there. Now imagine the fact that you are SOOOO undergunned for that fish that you couldn't even fathom what you would do if you actually hooked that beast.
That's how I felt. It felt so good that I'm definitely going back again as many times as I can before the striped bass start beckoning to me.
