Beautiful morning in Central Florida, No fishing for me this week sadly as I am caring for my mother in law. But I snuck out to Toho Marina for Breakfast, while eating I went live on youtube on the boat ramp. May do the same in the morning but going to take a rod with me and play around the docks before I have to be home. Beautuful morning to catch a 6.5 pounder, What say you Ray B.Â
How popular would a tiller Bass boat be here in the states?
Japan has the cool stuff.
Shakey head with fatty z is one of my confidence baits . It’s always produced for me.
Pine Flat lake , California
BLAT has been telling us to get out to practice these techniques he's been teaching us the last couple of weeks. So I desided to take a day and dial in on punching a Texas rig through grass mats that were scattered in one of the lakes I like to fish. Doing the heavy set up for these grass clumps! Big weight, big hook, big braid, etc...darn near pretty close to what his videos have gone through... had a blast, it was a much needed and fun day and had some success. The one I got the short clip of was close to 18" and around 3 lbs. I did get the drop shot rod heated up too on some suspended bass I had found. Great day all n all.
Went out on Sunday and picked up a crank bait… Nothing… so I picked up a shaky head… nothing… so I picked up a 1/2oz chatterbait… Nothing. So, I sat down, drank a diet Pepsi, and tied on a Zman 1/4 oz MicroMax chatterbait, white and chartreuse with a 3.5in spunk Shad trailer. I have to say I really enjoyed the feel on the retrieve and how easy it was to work it slow or fast in water up to 15 feet deep and around cover without getting snagged. It reminded me of a willow vibe, but with more control and the ability to imply, erratic action without going too fast. I found four like this one before I went home. I appreciate all the advice from the SUF family and the confidence to just keep trying new things until something works.
Welp! Caught the same fish twice lol… pretty much a duplicate of the night before. Lost 6 of them, once they turn and run straight towards me that left hand can’t keep up. I’m going to have to figure something else out because I hate losing that many.
My son and I fished our first tournament together. I fish our local Wednesday nighter on the Susquehanna Flats. Not the size we needed but we caught a limit (3 fish for this one).
