My apologies earlier I didn’t pay attention and posted a pic of 2 lber I caught day before yesterday…. lol I’m surprised nobody commented . It should have been the one one the left (I had livewell issue unfortunately and this beautiful girl didn’t make it ) so we made the best of it enjoying fish taco’s that night. The one on right I caught on Logan Martin north of goat island on an offshore roadbed that crosses the main channel from the island all way across main channel to a point about 1000 yards away. Their is 2 sections of this roadbed you can find a couple storm drain pipe culverts and ditch line that gain 5-7’ depth compared to majority of the roadbed providing added bottom features / cover and an ambush area for feeding. I was fishing a jerkbait & swim jig fish were suspended from 4-5’ off bottom to as high as 12-14 water depth average about 27-28’. With best five on these two sections of roadbed yielding bag approximately 22.5-23lbs decent fall day on the Coosa.
Spent most the day on the lake throwing spinners, chatters, texas, drop, etc with the intention to keep wacky aside for my practice run. After a true skunk in the making, I made the switch. Guess I know my plan on Sunday. Anyone have any other suggestions?
Check this out. This smallie chased the lure to the surface on the other side of the boat. I was messing with it and it chased it all the way around the boat. It was like doing figure 8's with pike/musky except it was a smallmouth. Then, I held the lure just above the water’s surface. Smallmouth bass came out of the water to check out/get this bait. This was practice for a tournament so I was ok with not catching that day. I did go back and caught two in this area.
Fall is definately upon us up here in the Northeast. 40’s and drizzle yesterday.
Trying out a new lake for some bass in my area and pulled a lake trout out with a smh worm on a dropshot. I let it go, but going back this weekend attempting to get a limit for supper one night! Pretty fish for sure!
Smallmouth on a chilly 40 degree day. What weather conditions keep you off the water?
Tough fishing on the Potomac today. Several fish came up short today and got only one to count. Fishing a shad colored lipless crankbait along a rocky point with grass. Wind was blowing pretty good that made the water cloudy so you had to zip it along to get the bass attention. Caught a bonus striper.
Great day on the water catching speckle trout and this Spanish Mackerel.
Got out for a couple of hours on the water today. This one was the best of the day, caught in less than 5 feet of water
Chickahominy River chatterbait competition when chasing bait schools! The eyes say it all.
