In my excitement of catching the biggest fish I’ve caught in the last 2 years I placed my tournament identifier on the wrong side with the identifier for the PREVIOUS tournament, without realizing it. Don’t be me.
This is about the most exciting thing I accomplished in the kayak this weekend..... didn't put a fish on the board but I got a SCUPPER RELEASE!! It's almost as good of a feeling as beating your PB bass, hahaha! Do we got a smallest fish category 🤔
I dontknow about yall, but THIS is how I like to start off a monthling Brian Latimer tournament...!
A good summer bass this weekend with Destiny Siguenza with temps on my units showing 86-90 between the Lowrance and Garmin just know it was HOT. Skipping some floating docks in 28-30ft of water was the ticket. They were also on the ladder looking things. Lots of shade. The old Neko rig did the job yesterday.
One other cool thing yesterday was watching them have big bait balls corralled into a pocket and watching them bust up the schools with FFS. There were schools of shad absolutely everywhere in this particular pocket. I did catch one throwing into the chaos too. Did anyone else bear the the heat this weekend and get out?
Kinda been chilling for a bit, said enough of that this weekend, got out for about 4 hours yesterday after a good storm pushed through on a newer lake I found out about. Did one of those weigh my best 5 deals... did alright and had some fun with the drop shot!! Hot snakes SMH worm, that was the ticket!
I got to go fishing with this guy today.
It was a lot of fun and I got to learn how to fish a drop shot.
Saw a rare sight 2 weeks ago..... I was on the Oconee river in Milledgeville, Georgia and saw a 6' long, atleast a 100lb sturgeon... they swim all the way up from the ocean to spawn.. it got about as far as it could go cause lake Sinclair dam is right above where I saw it.. 3' deep in super clear water. I couldn't believe my eyes, didn't know they were even in the Oconee.. googled it and yep.. super rare to even see one. I couldn't get it on video cause of the glare, plus it was only within sight for ½ a min.. thought that was a really cool experience tho. Mother nature rocks.!!
So what's the weirdest thing y'all have brought up with or instead of a fish? Caught this a couple weeks ago, this was my first bladed jig fish. And my fist Hybrid Hunter crank bait on a bladed jig. Not gonna lie I'm still salty I wasn't able to get it measured before it flipped out the kayak!
Been struggling, hard to find the big ones the past couple of months.. but I did find me a 19" at lake Julliette, Julliette, Ga yesterday... blew up on a choppo... wish I had it on camera, it was epic...
