Sheperds Mill Pond 7/21

[AJFISH13]

OK, we weren't fishing the actual Sheperds Mill. The actual pond is about 2 miles away and it's a Girl Scout camp. This lake is near Greenwich,NJ. About 10 acres and gin clear. First time fishing it. Here is my report.

Hit Sheperds Mill Pond this morning. Got on the lake at 5:00 am. We started working the shoreline and the weeds with topwater. By 8:00 am we had 30 bass and pickeral. We caught 6 more fish before 9:00 am which is when we got off the lake. So in 4 hours we caught 36 bass and pickeral. Very good morning of fishing considering we never fished the lake before. Even better, every single fish was on topwater except for the last one. Last one I took by pitching a Mr. Twister at him. Big fish was a 2 lb bass. A good morning of fishing all before the heat hit.
