Buddy,

Thanks for all of the good info.

After reading over the replies, I think I am to impatient as I retreive the flyline. As was stated, slow down, and slow down again. Cover the same areas multiple times.

We are having some record hight temps here in Virginia, yesterday the high was nearly 70. I was thinking that the bass would be more active in this warmer weather.

I am fortunate to have a storm water retention pond behind the house that has been stocked over the years with transplanted fish. Where I can get to and cast with a flyrod, the depth is no more than 10 feet. There is a lot of brush surrounding the pond for the most part, except for a small clearing here and there.
