Only 4 fish, all Largies, but nothing like breaking in a new lure the proper way - three 5 pound bass in 2 hours and 42 minutes. All topwater with different, but similar cover situations, two the same, one slightly different, and in different areas of the lake.
The first was a 5.48, then a 5.39, then a 5.66. Nice strikes and nice battles. The first got down into the weeds and I had to hand line her up, but she wasn't done fighting yet so had a little battle on the handline. YEAH! The second swam out of the weeds on her own while I pulled her on up. The third I was able to keep her out of the weeds.
A 4th fish was on a chatterbait under circumstances that I wouldn't usually use a chatterbait in. This fish was the second fish for the day, then off to another part of the lake.
Only lost 1 fish, and 2 other strikes on the topwater, both missed, and a couple others on the chatterbait that I think were perch anyway.
After all this, I HAD to rate the day a 5, heaven forbid. LOL
Wow, a 5 star day! Great job!!! Looks like they are gorging big time. I haven't been fishing much at all this summer. I hope I can get some more time out on the water this year before its gone.
wow! Ive never even seen one 5 lb bass, let alone three in two hours... I dont think Ive ever seen a ligitimate 5 star day posted by you. nice! Are you fishing near the shore now, or deeper structure?
Bought one. Fished 2 days on Sawyer and another private lake... not a bite. Tried it again on another lake and got 3 fish in five minutes. Was starting to lose faith, but it came through. Wanna hit Tapps next week? like Thursday? P.M./ me if so.
I've lost every single big fish on that lure since that day, some got off, some have missed it. lol No bites on it today, a couple yesterday, one good fish.
