So I tow my boat 7 1/2 hours to go fishing this past weekend. Only to catch my most memorable fish from the bank, 40 feet from our tent, in 12 inches of water, with 2 feet of line out.

The state park holds a lot of fish, but it sees a ton of pressure. I was in there on the fourth of July, and there must have been a dozen kids throwing frogs from the bank. I felt guilty invading their territory. So, I left! :oops: But, not before I connected with a few frog fish towards the outside on the way out! :wink:

This was Labor Day weekend. No one was fishing but I was surprised at the location for my catch. It was right next to the walking foot path not 40 feet from our tent. I will give credit. It seemed as though there were multiple casting lanes along that trail. I I only fished about 50 yards of the path but got multiple strikes in my frog. Near campsite number 41 I dont recall the name of the slough.My son in law caught this one from the boat on a Ned rig.

Nice catch! That thing is a beast.
