After an hour and a half of nothing, I finally got a hit, hook up and landing of a chunky "rainbow". Except this fish just seemed off and was almost as brown as the zombie salmon post at SR. After a quick dehook and pic I had him back in the water where he swam off slowly. Another half an hour only yielded a dink bass. Sad to see my favorite local spot go to crap. Dont know where I will fish anymore. Tight lines boys

a local pond in my town used to loaded with real nice bass..now its all chocked up with Water Chestnut....very disappointing!

That's very interesting with the grass carp. I wonder if they put them in already. Hopefully the combination of the 2 will help because it really is a nice place and the fish really used to do very well there.
