The weather has been absolutely perfect for the bite to be on so I went out for a little shore fishing this evening. I decided to use my ultralight with hopes of having some fun. Catching bass on light gear with #4 mono is a blast. Actually, to me it's like catching Hawgs with swim baits on #20 mono.
Here's my set up:
6'6 G-Loomis IMX fast action, 4-8 pound line class.
Shimano Sahara 750 spinning reel.
4 pound mono w/ one foot of 6 pound mono leader.
Lures:
2/0 or 3/0 hook
1/16oz bullet weight.
7" black Gulp worm.
Black over chrome rattletrap.
This was the first one I caught using the worm. I managed to get a nice action shot of the jump.
same fish
and again
Another one on the worm
Rattletrap
This one came on a different rod and trap.
Thanks for looking,
Doug
