Super User SirSnookalot Posted July 6, 2013 Super User Posted July 6, 2013 But I am telling you if any of you guys have any golf courses you need to fish them! If its a private course you will need permission if its public than its fair game. A public golf course means it's open to the public to play golf for a fee without having to be a member of a club. Â Public golf courses are either owned by an individual, a corporation, or municipality, public doesn't mean it's open for fishing at any time. Â You shouldn't be fishing while golfers are playing, you may be in their way and they have paid for time on the course. Â Sneaking, and that's what you're doing, before or after the day's golf is over is fine, as long as no one asks you to leave. Quote

If I were to pay my money at a public course and chose to fish not play golf then what fair game I believe? (Lol but I would never pay price for playing golf just to fish) Yea I always ask permission before I fish and I make it a priority to stay out of the way of the golfers. Most of the time if I see any they talk to me ask if I caught anything and wish me luck. They understand that I am just enjoying my hobby like they are, said hobby not sport because golfing and fishing are not sports. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted July 6, 2013 Super User Posted July 6, 2013 I only made mention because you said a public course is fair game......it isn't. Â Only if it's ok with maintenance staff, most of them don't have the real authority, they are hoping no problems are incurred. I've fished on courses myself next to my home. 1 Quote
CountBassula Posted July 6, 2013 Author Posted July 6, 2013 I'm on the board with a dink  LOL, what brand/model jig and trailer is that? I got some Booyah and KVD, and to be honest am not super impressed with quality... Quote
CountBassula Posted July 6, 2013 Author Posted July 6, 2013 What kind of jig u using? I usually use a swim jig with a rodent trailer and cast it out as far a I can past the point I want to focus on. Let it sit and bounce it like a football jig then retrieve it fast and repeat. I hav a lot of success doing it like that. And if you see structure u want to bounce about couple feet before it and then let it sit and speed retrieve and the kill it. Happened to me 4 times today. I went back out before dark and I pulled in 3 more nice ones two 19" and one 18" My top 5 is 20, 19, 19, 19, 18, 95 total I will post the new 3 tomorrow after I get back from the golf course with Bass Czar. Â i was using booyah baby boo jig, with a rage tail baby craw trailer. i got skunked bad man! i swam it, twitched it, and everything in between, and all i got was on 7-8 inch bass :-( Â I guess it's true what they say that arrogance comes before the fall... i was like "oh yea i'm gonna show those guys, i got the jigs to pull the large ones, oh yea", well turns out I don't know what the heck i'm doing :-( Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted July 7, 2013 Super User Posted July 7, 2013 Mvorbrodt, a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while.(Just messing and kidding with you) Since those pics several days ago, I have been skunked too. You have to be like AK-NJ and find a little pond at a golf course where they are all stacked up. Quote

You have to be like AK-NJ and find a little pond at a golf course where they are all stacked up. Yup golf course fishing. But the pond is anything but little it's massive. And all of the different ponds around the course and housing development are connected. The ponds are atleast 12 years old, I'm not sure which cAme first the golf club or the development. If it was the development then they are way older than that. Quote
OkeechobeeAngler Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 SnookAlot , was that a red and white yozuri ? Quote
bass Czar Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 wassup guys,here are the 2 I caught today while I was with AK-NJ 17 & 15..now for the sad part ,I went back out with a buddy later that day I had to ride with him to get on the golf club,i think you can guess the rest by looking at the pics lol...... my 3 best fish so far are 15,15,17, having problems loading the other 2 pics 1 Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted July 7, 2013 Super User Posted July 7, 2013 SnookAlot , was that a red and white yozuri ? Nope............that's my secret weapon and you can't have it, lol. Â You can't have it because it's one of those discontinued Chinese lures that's near impossible to find, the one in the photo was used for both fish, the pattern is clown. Â This $2.99 lure has accounted for more open water bass than all my other lures combined. Â I lost 1 last week and broke 2 this week, I'm heartbroken, lol, have only 8 left. Â These are my go to peacock lures. 1 Quote
Diggy Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 LOL, what brand/model jig and trailer is that? I got some Booyah and KVD, and to be honest am not super impressed with quality... Its a strike king hack attack jig 3/8th oz with a berkley pitboss trailer. That hook wont bend and it seems to get through vegetation and algae pretty unscathed. I believe walmart sells them but I got it from Dicks Sporting Goods a while back.  I have some northstar jigs but havent used them enough to know whats up  I had great luck with all terrain tackle football jigs from Gander Mountain. I caught 9 bass on them in one day in rocks which is my record jig fishing. I was using the football jigs Quote
fstr385 Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Its been rough!! My biggest is 18.5". Im 85.5" in 5. Not even goin to bother posting them all since they are behind. I hooked into a nice 5-6lb one Friday morning, but lost it under my boat and into the weeds and I couldn't swing around to the other side because one of my d**n poles hooked the weeds on the shore and it shook off. Havent had a chance to hit any of my better spots like I was planning either. Seems like fishing is over by 9am and I have to be to work everyday at 7-730. Stupid work always getting in the way of fishing!  1 Quote
CountBassula Posted July 8, 2013 Author Posted July 8, 2013 It's been tough indeed! All I got today that's worth sharing are two 13" bass, so I guess my total is 26" so far :-) Â Â Â Â Â Â Quote
bass Czar Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 one more on the list,got this one after work toady was out for about an hour..16" Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted July 8, 2013 Super User Posted July 8, 2013 Bass Czar, you and AK-NJ have been doing really well. What's your total right now? Quote

Diggy Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 I caught about 5 dinks yesterday. My dad caught a 1.5 bass which was the biggest of the day. Nothing worth measuring 1 Quote
Super User MCS Posted July 8, 2013 Super User Posted July 8, 2013 Swing n a miss today try again soon I hope. Quote
fstr385 Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 Cull out. Up to 93.5" They were on fire today! Â 3 Quote
CountBassula Posted July 8, 2013 Author Posted July 8, 2013 Cull out. Up to 93.5" They were on fire today! Â Â I'm jealous man! I wish I was catching fish like this... I was few months ago, but lately it's been dead :-( Quote
Super User MCS Posted July 8, 2013 Super User Posted July 8, 2013 Cull out. Up to 93.5" They were on fire today! Awesome fish man! U put that sucker on the scale? Yeah the little fishin calendar said today was the best of the no moon this month but apparently the fish at my location didnt get the invite like the ones at your spot lol Quote
fstr385 Posted July 8, 2013 Posted July 8, 2013 I'm jealous man! I wish I was catching fish like this... I was few months ago, but lately it's been dead :-( Yea I know. Its been a pain. This weekend I was debating on if I should even bother going out anymore, but persistence pays sometimes. Try earlier in the am. I may try in the middle of the night tonight and see how that goes. Â Awesome fish man! U put that sucker on the scale? Yeah the little fishin calendar said today was the best of the no moon this month but apparently the fish at my location didnt get the invite like the ones at your spot lol Thanks. Yea it wasn't that long, but it was a slob, so I weighed it. 6.8lbs. I think the last fish I caught that length was around if even 5lbs... that is if my scale is worth a crap. Always seems the few days around new moons produce much better than full moons. Quote
