The boys and me made that long 15 minute drive over to Greene-Sullivan State Forest this evening. We went back to the Graveyard pit and we're hoping that the carp were still in the creek there. Chase and me need to add a carp to the IndianaAngler.com online tourney! The creek had cleared up though and was full of weeds and small bluegill. We also caught a bunch of little pumpkin seeds. There was one bass spawning in the creek and it couldn't resist the same half nightcrawler that the pumkinseed took. Chase kept getting bites on his baby brush hog and finally caught the culprit; a little green sunfish. We also made a few casts at Lonnie Lake and Fry Lake with a few dink bass and bluegill caught.

Graveyard is full of pumpikinseeds I found that out last year. Beautiful fish but hard to get many keeper size. They just don't grow big like bluegill and redear. I hate green sunfish! They eat anything you throw b/c there mouth is so big for a sunnie. And they don't seem to get much length, just fat. Nice pic of the 'seed

It runs into the west end of Graveyard Lake. I wish I would've remembered that before I went out there yesterday. It took me a while to find it (not too familiar with the south end of the Forest). I fished it at the east end by the boat ramp; didn't have any luck though. I pulled this area up on Yahoo maps and Graveyard is bigger than what I was expecting. I finished my fishing at Spencer/Walnut Lakes. Walnut has got crystal clear water. Spencer has a creek that dumps into it and another exits. I'm attaching a pic to show the area. The red circles denote what looks to be Graveyard in its entirety ( ). The red arrow is where I fished it. The red square is Walnut/Spencer Lakes (I looked at the pic and the red square looks like a big red circle). The only fish I caught this evening was a 13 inch LM out of Bass Lake. Attachments:
