d**n!! Nice fish!!

I went back out on the Withlacoochee this morning. I didn't change anything except the worm color. I went with a watermelon seed Zoom Trick worm. I also got out much earlier. I think I was fishing by 9:30. I caught 3 small-medium bass and my first mudfish. Those things fight pretty hard, I thought I had a real nice bass. Anyway, it was a fun morning.

Thanks, Shanes and BassinLou. I saw the Senkos and was like "those are weird, they'll never work" lol, I told you it's been a while!! I'll try a bit of each, going lighter weight, senkos, colors, etc. The river water is real dark in summer, the lakes are pretty clear.

Hey everyone. Just getting back into freshwater fishing after living in Key West for a long time. I'm in Inverness now. I got a little jonboat and have taken it out once on the Withlacoochee River. I got a couple bites on a black worm, Texas rigged, but didn't hook anything. I think I was using too heavy weight. 1/4 oz. I was also using 3/0 wide gap worm hook in that bright red color. Fish were active on the surface all around me and if I would have had a topwater lure I would have tried it. I didn't get out until mid-day, not sure if that matters. There's also the Tsala Apopka chain of lakes right here. I'd appreciate any advice, on whatever. Thanks.
