This cache is Located at BASS River Recreation Area. BASS River
Recreation Area, is a 1,665-acre site, consists of open meadows,
open brush land, mature hardwoods, small ponds and 300-acre Max
Lake. It has approximately three miles of frontage on the Grand
River. The park is used primarily for boating, hiking, mountain
biking and horseback riding.
I have spent a lot of time out here doing various activities but
one of my favorites was fishing in the area. I have caught mostly
walleye, pike, and both small and large mouth BASS in the Gravel
Pits and in Max Lake. I could not think of a better place to join
my love of fishing and geocaching than BASS River Recreational
Area.
Ever since I started caching a little over a year ago I have wanted
to put out a 5-5 since there are not many around. I have taken
things I have learned over the year and put them all together in
hopes of making a true 5-5 cache.
There are some things I have always hated about fishing though.
Have you ever tried throwing a spoon lure under the stump of a
fallen tree to get that BASS to bite and got it snagged? Lost sight
of your bobber as you grabbed some water. What about throwing a
spinner lure at the monster BASS only to get it stuck in a tree as
you watched it swim away? Or even trying to find worms so you can
go fishing. The worst thing that has happened to me by far is when
my fishing pole broke while fighting a huge BASS. But in the end
when you lock up your tackle box after a long hike to your favorite
fishing hole you remember it is still better than a good day at
work. Who knows you might even have caught something while you were
out there.
