Took the family up to my buddy's place for the weekend. He has a nice pond on his property so the kids and I decide to see what damage we could do. Started fishing around 12noon and finished at dark. Took a few breaks to eat and grab me a new "frosty beverage". Totals for the three of us, lmb - 38, catfish - 31, crappie - 1. We used everything from softbaits, robos, cranks, jerks, jigs and believe it or not, hotdogs.
My daughter caught the largest of every species. LMB - 3.5lbs, catfish - 12.4lbs and she caught the only crappie, 1.15lb. My son caught the most but I had the most fun watching these two having an epic day! All were C&R. Now the pics

Nice family fun. How'd you rig the hot dog? Was it pinned on a EGW hook fished topwater? :ROFL:
