Went and hit up a private pond on Lookout Mountain on Saturday. A friend of mines aunt has land on the pond and we use their boat to go whack em every now and then. There is a dam on one side of the pond with some rip rap we fished first. Started out throwing a spinner bait with no luck. The friend I brought was throwing a watermelon seed worm texas rigged and caught one second cast. I switched over to a green finesse jig and caught a 4lber then 3 1/2 lber right off the bat. We eventually got in the boat and I caught two more smaller ones and my friend didn't have any more luck. He did learn to use a bait caster though so it wasn't completely uneventful for him.
