Comments:

Tonight I was doing a little car maintenance on Autumn’s car and after about an hour of that I decided I needed a little break. The easiest and best thing I could do for myself was walk through the back yard, over the bank and go fishing.
This little bay has been the hotbed of fishing frenzy. The place has been lit up with anglers hauling buckets full of bluegills home. Fortunately for me tonight, they had all left and I had the place to myself. The fish bit real good when I first started fishing, but as the sun drifted behind the western hills of Minnesota the bite drifted with the sun.

Observations:

The little bay is starting to get a little trashed up with duckweed and moss.
