Took the day off work today to fish for my birthday. Me and my buddy went to a private pond on Lookout to enjoy a beautiful day. We walk up to the bank and see a monster in a brush pile. I threw out my drop shot with a green finesse worm on it and WHAM. I took it immediately. Pulled the thing in and it was a toad. Great way to start the day. <br /><br />I caught most of my fish, 20 or so, on the same drop shot and also a clear chartreuse little john crank. My buddy caught all his, five or so, on a flat maxx bandit crank.<br /><br />We fished from about 10:30 until 2 and it was a great day to be on the way.<br /><br />Here is my birthday hog!<br /><br />
