Took a nice long hike around Merril Creek. Like any good fisherman by a body of water, I brought my pole to hit any little spots I could slide into as scarce as they were. When I wasn’t getting shooed off of the dam, I was striking out....until right before I hit the footbridge to head back towards the lot. Spotted a nice bass tucked in among some sunnies and a log, right at the mouth of the creek. Wouldn’t touch my swimbait but, as I have found out, this is the pit boss’s world and we are just living in it. Sucked it in on the drop and saved the skunk!!
