Northwest Fishing Reports

Been grinding big baits through the post spawn with minimal success until last thursday. Got a 6.1 on the G2 Shellcracker at dusk and on Saturday I caught a 7.14 and a 4.4 on the 8.5in Hiroshima Customs glide bait. Slump officially busted!

Awesome fish!

Way to grind 'em out!

Well done! Thanks for sharing.

Another good one on the 8.5 hard tail Hiro Trout. Hard to put this bait down!

You have been doing great this summer. Congrats. Keep it up.

I have 2 of those big things, some day I'll use the good one, a BBZ1. I've only used the old Kong one I found at the lake a couple times, nothing yet.

Thanks Tom! Give them a try, but be warned... Big bait fishing is extremely addicting!

I've caught Bass on big spinnerbaits, and big top water, and big crankbaits, and big jigs, but I just can't seem to even use the big swim baits that I have. I shoulda used one today, but flat forgot about it. I guess I'd better check to see if they are both in the boat for tomorrow.

It helped me to work my way up from smaller baits. I still use a 6inch bait sometimes, especially during the colder months. The bbz is not a bad bait though try burning it over flats or weeds!

6.9 from Fazon

Awesome. Congrats. Is that from today?

A beauty!!

Well, this one wasn't in the northwest, I caught it in eastern Idaho, but I'm moving to the Olympia area in February, so I thought I'd get active on here. I was alone in my float tube, so hard to judge scale, but I'm 6'2", so my hands are pretty good sized.

Just checked back and saw this one...Nice Chunk!

Thanks! I hope to get into some out in Washington before too long. This site has been a great research tool, so I'm hoping I can get into them this spring.
