Spotted bass? I've been trying to find some time to hit the streams with a buddy of mine, it seems we're both on different travel schedules so we're never in town the same week! This weather's been killing me, it's so great for some pre-spawn fishing!!!
A little bigger than the fish we use for bait here.............. Nice catch never did any fresh water fishing myself.
Nice pic! Im hoping to go large mouth bass fishing with my son Saturday night. Its always a tough call, bass, rainbows or kokanee? So many options so little time!
I finally got out last week. It was cold and rained on us, but it was worth it! A buddy and I hit one of our honey hole creeks where we've each caught 20+ smallies before in an evening, but it was pretty slow that night. We both caught one small mouthed bass, mine was just over a pound and his was close to a 2 lb, which is a monster in this creek. No pics, maybe next time we'll remember to bring our cameras.
I haven't done much bass fishing yet. Got on some good crappie yesterday and my daughter helped me land a pike on an ultralight with a crappie jig. I hooked the fish and didn't know what it was, then she asked if she could pull it in so I gave her the rod and she pulled it in. Didn't know it was a pike until it was beside the boat.
Pike are such cool looking fish. Maybe once a year I get a chance to fish for them in Michigan, I don't even care if I catch one as long as somebody I'm with pulls one in.
Brother in law with a fat smallie our first time on the water a couple weeks ago. I, of course, only managed a couple little largemouths. I did get to watch a MONSTER pike follow my spinnerbait up to the surface about six feet away, then turn around and mosey off.
Where'd ya get the Scheid shirt? I know the guy who drives their dragster and a guy who work in the shop.
Its a shirt from a friend, Calvin Miller has a pulling truck called "Running in the Red". Scheid is a sponsor I believe.
No, we were between Dexter and Pinckney. He got a new-old boat over the winter, and that was the maiden voyage. The water is still pretty cold around here, but we're going to try again today as soon as I get home.
