1st Try At Norton Reservoir

Took the canoe out early am until the wind was too much to deal with at 11am. Got a 2lb not far from 140 at the put in, got another 16in 2lb bass on th eastern side of the reservoir parralel to the island. I haven' t fished in such heavy weeds before with much success, my first fish had 10lbs on weeds on top of him by the time I got him in the boat (off a BPS Senko knock off worm). GOt the other later in the am off a black buzz bait (that's a first). So many weeds didn' tknow what else to try. Fishin worms in the wind and weeds is tough. Good day overall, but the wind is annoying in a canoe. I need to find an easier place to put the canoe into this place, as my shoulder is hurt and had to get some help from a good samaritan at the put in spot off rte 140.
