in this 21 Sep 18 adventure, we travel to Cooper County, Missouri, and check the potential of a Missouri Department of Conservation Area pond.  Using Z-Man Slim SwimZ (the 2.5 inch worked best) and a brand new 2.75 inch Z-Man BatWingZ mod affectionately called the "Bearded BatZ", it was discovered that the pond had a goodly population of bass and an impressive population of big bluegill.  Although there's quite a bit of effort involved in hiking into ponds like this, in this case the discovery rated two thumbs up!  In a gesture of caring and sensitivity, a crank bait was harvested from a tree for Sparky's Christmas (ha, ha, ha!).  Z-Man Finesse Shroom as well as Finesse BulletZ were to present the lures to the fish.  MegaStrike attractant was used on all lures to enhance their effectiveness.  Enjoy the show!
Z-Man Finesse ShroomZ, Finesse BulletZ, Slim SwimZ and BatWingZ can be purchased at fine tackle stores or zmanfishing.com
