Thanks for the update. Did you get a couple of Rapala Skitter Pops?

No, couldnt find any. I know walmart has them, so i will get them there. Im going to try again next weekend. Its supposed to be nice and cool next weekend. I felt sick fishing in this heat

give it up dude...the largies in wards are near impossible to catch. ive only caught maybe 8-10 of them in the 8 years ive been fishing there. earlier this year i got lucky and caught a couple on a large sinking plastic worm and elijah caught a 2 pounder on a small piece of nightcrawler at like midnight, but other than that we havent had a whole lot of bass luck there this year. if i were u, with no boat, i would start fishing the stielacoom lake bridge...other than that i stick with what i said before, get a boat.
