Notes

Took a short fishing trip from the house on my bicycle. Fished in Montecito, which was uneventful, then tried the small pond in front of the Siena Court development just south of the house. This pond is about 1/3 of an acre, and loaded with Bluegill and some Tilapia. The Bluegill were really agressive, even the extremely tiny ones which could never be caught were taking a hit at the lure. I saw one bass, about 3" long, too small to be caught, but the first bass I've seen in Satellite Beach.
