Landed my pb smallie, 20 incher and caught a 19 in on 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!
Kayak Adventure Series day 1 of practice on gatewood Park had been solid. Won't be fishing out here until Friday afternoon when tourny starts.
Lake is down 10+ feet but bait and bass are still dirty shallow we are getting a good rainfall so hopefully this enhances what I found and more bass pull up. Tomorrow we try a spot with smallmouth
Picked up a couple of these about a year ago and stuck them in the back of the tackle mound not knowing what to do with them. They have become kind of a big deal these days, question is when is a good time to put down confidence baits and pick up something new to try?
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.
Question about the new “pro anglers in local tournaments” video.
Noticed and could hear that Brian was disengaging and re-engaging his spool release button instead of relying on the drag. Is there any particular reason for this?
