Bass On Strike :(

[logan9209]

I went to my favorite point around 7am and left around 9:45am this morning. Grant it, I was only there for almost 3 hours and I did get there late, so I guess 3 wasn't too bad. I was too late for poppers. Normally I have a bigger window, but it started warming up quick and the bass didn't want it. I switched to the Yum Dinger black/blue flake (pre f2) and caught 2 hand length and one 2lb. It had been so long since I caught a 2lb that I thought it was maybe a 4 so I took a pic of it. Then I weighed it. I'm still thankful for it, but I should have weighed it first. All that by 8:30am.

After that I couldn't even buy a strike. I threw a 10" ribbon tail red shad, a watermelon red flake tube, a watermelon blue flake tube (both were 3"), a Bomber model A foxy shad, and a green/ white Yum Dinger F2. Oh I also threw my brown swim jig with a june bug Smokin Rooster, but quickly got reminded that the point isn't a good place to use b/c reels. I need to get a machette to clear out some limbs and the weeds by the bank.

I seen 3 or 4 bass swimming close to the bank, so it could be just a matter of not throwing what they wanted. Or, they could be just not interested in feeding. I don't know. It's been along time since I have walked away with less than 7 bass from that point.

I forgot to mention that I did try the Anaconda. Darn thing scared the crappie out of one bass. It will get better soon. Sometime within the next 5-10 days we're supposed to drop back down to the middle 80's for the high. The bass should go back to work then.

Ya, the Bass down here joined the Union, they are still negotiating a contract for more days off and fewer baits!
