2011 Bass

FinsnFur · June 27, 2011, 03:12:52 PM

LOL...actually it was a walnut limb with all the bark off it, that my daughter used for moving under brush while mushroom hunting. She left it in the back of my truck.
So ...yeah Louisville Slugger, but a customized version.

The beavers are starting to close of one of my honey holes with a dam. It's normally only real productive during the spawn up here which is long gone now.
But since the construction of the beaver dam, it made a nice little place for the bass to hang out during the heat of the summer.
I bet I pulled 20 bass of this thing this morning. I finally stopped taking pics of them. They werent very big, but it sure was fun.

The weather was screamin "get in the basement" all morning. Low wall like clouds, black skies, thunder, off and on high winds, sporadic rain, but you know what that stuff does to fish and these guys didnt let me down, and they didnt care what I threw at em.

Headed down to throw a few today after I got the truck put back together.
Pretty much got ripped off the whole time

Chris mentioned something about going to the lake yesterday but by the time she got back from grocery shopping I was involved in other projects and she had already changed her mind about going and we are having thunder storms this morning so we won't be going today
Atleast you didn't get skunked this time

Your fishing partner is the best pic of the whole thread. You have a beautiful daughter, Jim.

So how are the boy friends working out with 'ol dad? Taken any of them ~~drowning~~ fishing yet?

Not yet Semp. But I'm pretty proud of her. So far she has shown her priors the door for trying to rush things along.

Found some stripers yesterday hunkering around a wingdam. I think I caught close to a dozen of these things on a crankbait before I decided I might as well grab a bucket from the truck and take a few home.

I should known, once I did that the bite would be off.

Caught three more after that and they were getting smaller and smaller. Feisty buggers though. You'd think you had a 4 pound largemouth on the way they fight.

This guy must have seen all the action going on and moved in to get a piece of it. Which put him in the wrong place at the right time, right on the end of my line

I woulda liked about a half a dozen more of thrse

The girls did a lot of whining about how hot it was, pulling their clothes off, pulling their clothes up, and amidst all that managed to catch a few largemouth around that dock but wouldnt let me take their pics. They said their hair was ugly

I wish I woulda thought of that before I had mine taken.

I am missing most of your hair in these two pictures anyway, so it looks fine. Actually a pretty nice FLAT top.

yeah I'm gonna go with something like...umm..I told them to leave my hair out cause it was ugly or something

Hawks Feather · October 09, 2011, 10:25:08 PM

I though that it was something like that!

Found some more yesterday afternoon.
The cold weather is just barely starting to set in up here, so judging by the size of these bass (which arent very big) there should be one good hoorah yet as these things realize "hey man winters coming lets fill out guts"

I still dont understand what these little cheezers are doing chasing a crankbait almost half their size LOL!

I just love being out there this time of year. The scenery is awesome, it's peaceful, the only sounds are the birds and the running water, no people, no cars, jake brakes, barking dogs, ahhhhhhhhhhh love it

Got home just in time to see this
