What do you do when a massive rainstorm hits?

We had inches of rain yesterday and every stretch of moving water is a chocolate milk shake right now. I remembered that there's a small pond about a mile from me that I've been meaning to try for the last year. Turns out, it's absolutely full of massive gills who love foam hoppers. I pulled a few approaching two lbs today. I landed over 20. Surprisingly, I saw no bass though.


Also, I forgot to post this last week, but here's the first photo of our upcoming addition. January can't get here fast enough!


I think I'm heading out later this evening to a big lake with Nick to see if we can find some Crappie and Bass on streamers. More later.
