Who says bass anglers can't be glamorous?
During our recent vacation to South Georgia we got out on my father-in-law's farm pond for some bass fishing. The girls had a good time. I hooked them both up with spincasting rigs with Zoom Baby Brush Hogs and that's all it took.
The pond is packed with stunted bass so we took a bunch home. We ate some down there and I was surprised that it was pretty good compared to some mushy late-summer bass and bluegills I've had before.
After the girls had their fill I spent maybe 10 minutes working the shallows with a Zoom Horny Toad and had a blast. I got a bunch of blow-ups, although I was having trouble keeping the fish buttoned. Needed a bigger hook, I think.

Mark TaylorThanks, Moe!
You know, I actually looked into getting the girls their own polarized glasses because they're constantly bugging me to borrow my "magic fishing glasses." But I expect they'd get lost or broken pretty quickly so I just couldn't justify the $20/pair cost. Maybe one of these years.
