Walleyes?
good job guys! I didn’t get much going on largies throwing a spinner bait in the colder water. What kind of water temps were you finding fish?
we found 63 degree water but no bass. we were far too ahead of the fish where we fished yesterday.
what color tube were you fishing.
the chatterbait color that worked best, or caught the most bass was gold, ( actually a booya version). but I caught the big northern on white..
strike king bleeding bait tube. Watermelon color. texas rigged, pitching and flipping. Dragging more than jigging it
It looked something like this
I was throwing this
and of course whatever spinnerbait we wanted…

If I’m understanding what you meant by this – you may not have been ahead of them, but they were definitly not roaming where we found them, they were holding to certain earthly structures
we were just on a big flat with little to throw at. they just weren’t there yet, or had pulled back because of the lightning and rain in the morning. we were done fishing by 5 pm. we did fish some deeper stuff, logs and lay downs right at the end but didn’t get bit.
I prefer to have something to throw at or to. not just ask the bass to commit suicide on some big flat. But the guy I was with, that was what he wanted to do. and he had one lure tied on all day an has had it tied on since last fall.
I must say they have a unique action. but I also would have guessed that I could have caught a bass on a “trap as well. but they weren’t having it. they wouldn’t hit a jerk bait either. and I threw that on some prime stuff.
I have that jig slop, its a good one!!
We found 66 Degrees in one spot today!
I couldn’t believe it. No fish there though, they were too preoccupied in that 57-59 degree stuff with that earthen structure slop is talking about.
I think cade… that those fish aren’t in that 66 degree water becuase there is no “saftey zone” it’s all 1 1/2 feet deep with nowhere to go if things get rough for them. Those fish in the 55-57 degree stuff are sunning shallow but can run down into 3-5 whenever they feel threatened. Keep that in mind
That definitely makes sense. I would have to think though when the stars aline they are going to spawn way back in there. I mean i couldn’t believe some of the water we saw in that one little back cut. there is a mud line and it goes to gin clear with a relatively hard bottom and stumps everywhere. Just looked awesome.
Last night was a great night for fishing! I only fished for about an hour and ended up with 8 LM. Nothing huge, but 5 were legal. The bass were very active, caught them all on a spinner bait in & around wood on a strech no longer than 75 yards. Hope the fishing is this good all year!
I’m replacing mounts / scope on a Browning A-Bolt with a Burris XTR mount-rings system. Both of the bases are identical (Base stamped A). When I mount the bases and set the bottom half of the rings, the alignment is off by .064 compared to center of base to center of base. Anyone encounter this? What was your fix?
