Landed my pb smallie, 20 incher and cought a 19 in one one or two casts after this one. Seen some tiny minnows being driven into a rock sticking out of the water on the bank. Wounder what was causing that to happen?!Tossed the squarebill that way and fight on!!Didn't have a scale with me but both were in the 5 lb. range. Fun bite!
A little bed fishing during club tournament. Air temp 45 water temp 57. Lure sitting in the bed is what?
From a tournament on May 3rd. Do Bass spawn when it is snowing out? Well here I catch one on a bed. While it was snowing out. I got 3rd place.
Went to a new lake today, It is close in size and structure to the one I will be fishing this weekend so sort of a Pre Fish. Lake Blue Cypress is likely the prettiest lake in Florida. Fished for about 4 hours, found a lot that did not work, They would not touch a shaky head or Carolina rig. Went to an old standby, EZ Swimmer (Actually a Bitters Naked Swimmer, but same idea), rigged Texas weightless and retrieve so it stays on the surface and also letting it drop in openings in the grass. Ended with 3 scorable bass, total weight 7.63. I am sure Mack would feel right at home on this lake, Surrounded by Cypress trees, and Gators big enough to eat his Kayak.
2nd Place in Club tournament this weekend. 35 and rain to start the tournament, rained all day and we made it to 45. Super slow tough day and I manage to pull out 2nd. Weights were not high. A lunker 6 lb 6oz largemouth was caught but he only had one fish.
Since the SUF Retreat I’ve fished the Shaky Head almost exclusively and I have come to appreciate how good it works.
