Love the large mouth bass photo...
I caugt one at my little brother's farm pond of one and a half acres. He has the department of fisheries stock it in Indiana. He also has small mouth bass, some pansfish like Bluegill and channel cats and I understand there is a very large Blue Cat in there as well.
Ya can pull in fish all day long from the shores on either purple worms or for the catfish, use some old real liver on a hook. They love the smell and can't resist.
