Last weekend I went to a pond, caught a couple decent babies around 14-16 inches, but when you have 5 kids you are trying to corral, its a bit difficult to fish lol. Always helping cast, or bait, or reel, or untangle, or pick someone up out of the mud. Last week was pretty hilarious, I told one of my 3 year olds, don't run through that muddy patch, you will slip and fall in the pond, not 5 minutes later LOL.

I caught it with this lure right here:
That lure, without question, has been the most effective for me this year. I’ve caught probably 75% of the bass with that one... and I’ve tried hundreds of lures this year. That one is “Old Reliable” status right now. Coming in a distant 2nd is the blue and black Chatterbait (and I have like 8 colors for Chatterbaits...for whatever reason, the blue and black):
My life situation recently has allowed me to get back in touch with some of the things I was allowed to do 10 years ago.
I know EXACTLY what you mean about the kids.
And they are so antsy and impatient that the bobbers don’t stay out there long enough. Haha my girls are 2, 7 and 8. The older two also tend to get bored and whiney if we aren’t catching anything.
