Well started off with losing a spinner bait somehow my fishermans knot slipped on the mono during a cast... had tossed it probably 2 dozen times looked fine them bam gone.
The next part was somewhat excited, I've only caught bass so far on spinners, buzzbaits and crankbaits. Havn't landed my first plastic catch.
I was tossing a worm, workin it along the bottom and bam, it got smashed... set the hook, bringing her in she jumps, looked nice too, I'm guessing 3-4#, she hits the water and my line goes slack... d**n, that was disappointing. Still don't know what went wrong, had tension on the line, low to the water... just don't know. Worm is trashed and bite marks on the tungsten worm weight. Only thing I can think of is I set the hook to early and had a bad set.
Oh well. So I continue on.
I walk about 100 yards over to some docks and am skipping a worm under them. Goes well for about 30-45min, no bites and I was set on catching something with that worm after that bite. About 45 min of skipping under the docks I backlash my reel... well today was also a first for the first time trying out braid. Lets just say as I'm sure you all know... braid backlash is nothing like mono or fluoro backlash. Needless to say that ended my day after tossing a crank on my other rods for a little while. :-/
Oh well, may be trying a different lake I've never fished tomorrow see what I can do over there.
