duck scout turned fishy

so dustin and i were invited to shoot ducks on some private land. the problem was we didnt know if there were any ducks out on this land and since it wasnt duck season last week we decided to go scout it out one evening. the land owner said there could be a few bass in the old phosphate pit so we brought along a couple of poles. he was right there are a few bass in that old pit. we didnt see a single duck but that could be because we had our hands full catching bass. in a couple hours we had landed around 50 bass (most keeper size) a few in the 6 pound range and several in the 3 pound range. we probably could of caught a 100 if we would of kept fishing a worm but we decided to throw some topwater plugs and toads for the excitement factor. we kept a limit of 14 inch fish for our annual wild game cookout but released all the larger fish. don’t know if we will ever kill a duck on that land but u can bet we are going to go scout it out again before duck seasons starts back up. crapy scouting trip but great fishing trip!
