Went to take the new boat out on it's 1st official fishing trip. Hit Lake st clair around 330 and was gona try for crappie LMB and trout no luck all day and was pushing us every direction we didnt want to go. tried a few areas with no luck so went back to litle chanel we started at and wind had calmed down by this time i had switched over to 1/16 ounce jig with a spinner blade and tipped with a chartreuse Berkley Gulp alive 2 inch minnow. was targeting crappie again few into some logs against shoreline and finaly bam "Guys I got one" i yelled in my mind I thought i was snaged again when I said this then I felt the fight and a few jups later I got the 1st fish in the boat not huge but made my day.

The first bass of the year is always special!

Yup, that's why I had to take a picture of my little fish - first trip of the year + first fish of the year = gotta take a picture. :-) lol Of course the next day I got skunked. Thinking of going in awhile after I get back from the dog's appointment at the vet.

Nicely done! You beat me to it. Any idea of the depth you were fishing?

I'd have to say 12 feet or so depth finder said 16 but I hooked him closer to shore

Haha no worries I actually had a rig that I thought would be good for crappie when I caught him shallower then I would of thought too
