Super User Dwight Hottle Posted April 5, 2012 Super User Posted April 5, 2012 Got my first chance to fish with an old bass resource guy this week. He is a jerk bait fool for sure. One of the few guys who likes jerk baits as much as I do for prespawn bass. Our first day yielded about 40 smallies with six over five lbs & two over six pounds. We had a great day together & learned a little from each other as well. The second day we started off with light winds & headed back to our spot form the day before. Then the wind picked up & continued to build for the rest of the day. We got about 30 bass on the second day with seven over five lbs including a 5-14 and a 5-15. Each a goby away from 6lbs. It was a slow ride back to the ramp in solid 2-4 footers. Special thanks to Jeff for a couple of great days & teaching me a few new tricks. Mother erie at her best. 3 Quote

Super User CWB Posted April 7, 2012 Super User Posted April 7, 2012 That does it. I'm moving. I bet you have the camo shorts on under the rainsuit. Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted April 7, 2012 Author Super User Posted April 7, 2012 That does it. I'm moving. I bet you have the camo shorts on under the rainsuit. I was thinking about wearing them over the rain bibs because our temps have been in the 40's but I was afraid the locals at the ramp would run me out of town. Quote

If it will help at all, I donning camo from head to toe - and the fashion police will have to get over it. A-Jay Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted April 7, 2012 Super User Posted April 7, 2012 WOW - WTG Dwight! You guys caught more smallies over 5 pounds in two days than I will catch LMB over 5 pounds for the rest of this year... Quote
hatrix Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 I need to start going out on Erie for smallies more this year..... Screw trying to catch dinner I would rather catch those and starve then fish for perch or walleye. I need to get like Dwight and start catching tons of monster smallies. Quote
