Today both my aunt and uncle had a day off and they took us to Frankish Schweiss. We visited a castle and a cave with lots of dripstones. It was an awesome day.

These pictures are from this Monday sorry for not putting them up earlier. Monday we went to see a wealthy family summer home in Nurnberg from the 17th and 18th century. Then we went to the underground tunnels where a brewery brewed their beer. These tunnels were also used in WWII for bomb shelters.

Today was a relaxing day. Manfred's parents and some of their friends came over for lunch and coffee and we spent almost the entire day inside. It was raining all day so it was a good day for it. We needed the rest too. At the end of the day we took a drive into Nurnburg and went to the area where there is a museum for WWII and a huge area where Hitler held his parades and rallies. The place was huge and it was really strange standing at the podium where he gave his speeches. Tomorrow hopefully it wont be raining and cold and we can go into Nurnberg some more or maybe visit another nearby city.

Here are some pictures from Regensburg. We were there on Saturday and had a tour of the city by small trolly. Its very well known for this bridge and we walked around the old town and had lunch and a few drinks. The weather was better and it did not rain.

Hi,

We went to Wurzburg it is about an hour away from Nurnburg. We went on a city tour where they told us that the whole city was destroyed in WWII. They had to rebuild everything back up. They used some of the old stones that they found to rebuild it but it mostly is a new city. In the same city there is a palace that we took a tour in. It has a cool fresco painting on the ceiling but in this palace we are not able to take pictures so we bought a book for Wurzburg and it has pictures of the inside of the place. It was a lot of fun.

Love

Hey everyone,

Here are more pictures from what we have been doing the last few days. We went to Amsterdam with Bart and Susan and went to the Anne Frank house but we could not go inside. We also went on a boat tour of the city. We walked around throught the Red Light District that was very funny.

Today we went Ria and Arnold to Zaans Museum where there are lots of windmills and we walked around and go to go inside one of them. Then for dinner we went to Delf which is near their home town of Pijnacker. Tomorrow we are going back to Delf to look at some pottery and hopefully climb the tall church. We are having lots of fun. We hope everyone is doing well and we hope to talk with you guys soon.

Love,

Amy and Mirza

Caught a few on Saturday

I went to Lake Lodge again and spent about 4 hrs fishing. This time it was a little windy and I decided to try and go to the other side of the pond because

I could not get any bites in my usual spot. I fished all around the pond with no bites. I tried shaky head, texas rigged w/ and without weights, lipless

crankbaits, medium diving cranks, flukes, spinner baits, chatter baits, I threw about everything I could think of trying different retrieves and n

othing. I finally came back to the usual spot and tried throwing a small red craw pattern lipless crankbait. I got a reaction strike slow rolling it over the weedline. I caught two little guys and it was awesome getting those reactions strikes. I guess they just wanted something with a smaller profile and a little red. The water was cloudy from the w

aves. It usually pretty clear in this little pond.

The last fish and the better one of the day was a pretty crazy strike. I was slow rolling the crankbait back to the bank and I had it about two feet in front of me.

I am watching it as its coming back when all of a sudden the bass comes out of nowhere from the left and side swipes the crankbait it was the craziest thing ever. I never knew how fast and with how much force they smack their pray. It awesome to actually see the strike that close to the bank. Here are some pictures.

First Bass of the year. It was pretty chilly out today but I decided to go and try and get after em at my favorite little pond. I had been there a few weeks ago just when the ice was melting and I didn't get anything. It was windy and cold today around low 40's. I caught him on a senko texas rigged with a 3/16 tungsten weight. Then I didn't get a single bite rest of the time. I tried lipless cranks for about a half hour and then a shaky head for a while but I didn't get any hits. He was a good size about a 2 1/2 - 3 lber. Beautiful colors too.

Well I have not posted anything in a long while. I have had a crazy summer. I graduated from school with a bachelor's degree in Geology. I am now back at school to get my Masters degree in Business Administration.

This summer was very busy. I went on my senior trip out west, then I came home and worked at Advanced Auto part time and worked on the house.

We put an addition on our house. It a huge garage with an upstairs for a future room. The place is coming together slowly and its a lot of work.

I went fishing a few times but definitely not as many times as I wanted. This picture above is of a nice Northern Pike I caught. Enjoy the picture of my Dad. We had a great time.

2009-05-27T20:34:00.007-04:00

We went to Arches National Park and it was the coolest place. I climbed some really steep cliffs. I dont think the pictures can really explain how much fun and how exciting this was. Just amazing

2009-05-27T20:24:00.003-04:00

We went to Dead Horse Point yesterday and it was really nice. We got to camp out and we had a great time.

2009-05-27T20:13:00.002-04:00

Our next stop was at Bryce Canyon and I really didn't go on any hike today so I don't have great pictures. I went with my friend Zach to try and a find a place for us to do some fishing.

2009-05-24T23:35:00.006-04:00

We went to Zion National Park today and It was by far my favorite park so far. I really liked it.

2009-05-24T23:13:00.004-04:00

We stayed at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon and we went on a 10 mile hike to a very amazing view. It was awesome but it was quite a workout. I'm so out of shape.

2009-05-24T23:06:00.001-04:00

Our next stop was at the Glen Canyon Dam. We went on our Dam tour and had a great time.

2009-05-23T00:17:00.003-04:00

We went on a crazy hike at Mesa Verde it was awesome. We climbed down this awesome cliff.

2009-05-22T23:51:00.002-04:00

Mesa Verde was a pretty awesome place.

2009-05-22T23:44:00.002-04:00

The drive to Mesa Verde. Some great Rocky Mountains Scenery

2009-05-22T23:11:00.005-04:00

Our next stop was the Great Sand Dunes. This was an amazing place. I felt like I was in the desert.

2009-05-22T20:30:00.005-04:00

The Florissant Fossil Beds was our second stop where we looked at some of the petrified Red Wood trees and were given a talk about the history of the region.

2009-05-08T10:35:00.003-04:00

So I went to the Ag-Tech Lake pond Wednesday May 6th around 7:30 am to clear my head from studying and I had a good day. I caught three fish two of which were 3lb's but I couldn't get a picture of either. The first was barley hooked on the rattle trap and just as I was about to lip it it shook off. The second I was weighing on the scale and he shook of and fell into the pond. They were nice fish tho.

I then went to the opposite side of the pond and hooked into the biggest fish of the year. It went 4lbs 11 oz and was a fat chunker at 19 inches long. All fish were caught on a cotton cordell rattle trap. Here are some pictures of the fatty

I haven't posted in a while. I have been busy with school and finials and getting ready to graduate. I did get a chance to go out a few weeks back and I caught a couple bass on Foster Lake with my friend.
The next few pictures are from the Wellsville Trout Derby. It was my first time fishing it and it was an interesting experience. There were over 3000 people there and lots of cash fish. I only caught a little 10 inch rainbow trout that was not tagged in the morning. I didn't get a single bite after that. Here are a few pictures.....

This is a little dink I caught at the Ag-Tech Lake with my new Shimano Voltaeus Rod. They are having a contest online for fish caught with the rod so this is my entry. Little guy was 1lb 5oz caught on a small spinner bait.

2009-04-18T20:17:00.002-04:00

So today I wanted to try to use a few different techniques instead of just my crankbaits. I made a promise that I would not use any cranks and I would throw jigs and swimbaits, and anything else. I didnt catch any fish at the one pond I go to normally so came back to Foster Lake and tried to catch a few before the sun went down. I caught one but I didnt set the hook good and it came off. I was using a swimbait and it hit it as I was about to pull it out to cast again. It was about 4 feet infront off me so I didnt get a chance to get a good hook set.

I took this really awesome picture as the sun was going down.

2009-04-17T18:51:00.004-04:00

1 lb 3oz
1lb 10 oz
1 lb 7oz

Went to Palmers Pond today and I caught three using a rappala rattling deep diving crankbait. They were little guys but It was good to catch a few on this new place I fished.

2009-04-15T18:40:00.004-04:00

So I have been showing all these pictures of the bass I have caught on this pond and I have not shown any pictures of this beautiful place. So here are a few of the pond I like to fish near my school.

4/05/09
This is my favorite picture this year. I fished the same pond again and I did not get a single bite this day. There was a big cold front the day before and it was cold a few days earlier as well. I thought that they would be biting really well today. I decided to go to the opposite side of the pond and got my first bite and this really beautiful fish. I love the colors of this bass and the picture is awesome with the sky in the background. I love this little pond.

2009-04-15T18:32:00.002-04:00

These are three more from the pond caught on 4/31/09 basically in the same spot. Two were caught using a Rattle Trap and one was caught using a El Grange Swimbait.

2009-04-01T19:18:00.001-04:00

These are some of the bass I caught on Tuesday 3/30/09 the first of 2009.
The first picture is of my new setup. Its a 7 Foot Medium Heavy Berkley Lightning Shock Series Rod with a Abu Garcia Revo S reel. All three of the bass were caught using a Ratlle Trap on the pause of the retrieve. The bass were all in a weed bed in my favorite little spot on this pond near my college.
