Super User BassinLou Posted September 18, 2013 Author Super User Posted September 18, 2013 That's why I love bass fishing. We all have our confidence baits Quote
Super User MCS Posted September 18, 2013 Super User Posted September 18, 2013 Frogs have become the norm in this comp I think only people who don't fish em are MCS and Martin. Have a feeling they will come around sooner than later and then maybe they can compete lol jk Well I am hanging around, So the difference between us non frogging guys is I catch fish, albeit smaller fish than two guys this month, and martin sees fish, ok they are 25" inches but still not catching. So that makes me numero uno of the non froggers. What happened to ol buzz bait'n Czar man? You feed him to the gators he ain't even post a fish this month did he? 1 Quote
dsidle61 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 I gave the stanley frogs a go yesterday, dicks didnt have any of the hollow body ones so i just got what they had. had 2 hits but didnt land either. I do think they have a little better action than the zoom horny toads. but i definitely want to check out the hollow body ones. Pulled in a 15" on a wacky senko but didnt take a picture. Not sure if ill get out tonight. got over 3" of rain here in jax today so may be a bit swampy. Quote

Buddy went out last night and had a 30 minute flurry before the heavens opened up. Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted September 18, 2013 Author Super User Posted September 18, 2013 There are differences between using a buzzing frog like the horny toads and ribbits vs a hollowbody frog. I find more versatility in the hollow body frog vs a soft plastic frog imho, however, in certain situations the soft plastic frog does illicit some real aggressive strikes. 1 Quote

Me, Dave, and Derrick (texted him waitin on response) are going fishing this weekend in the OP area if you are free you should join us. Probably going to hit up OPCC or Industrial Saturday morning. I will be out all weekend since the Eagles play tomorrow night and my girl and son are going to a wedding in Orlando for the weekend, I don't like her cousin who is getting married so I am not going lol Quote
Super User LgMouthGambler Posted September 18, 2013 Super User Posted September 18, 2013 Lgmouth, did you really use a real live frog to bass fish? When ever I see a live frog in the water, which is rare, the haul a** out of the water. They know what will happen to them if they stay in the water long enough. LOL. Yes, it was a toad. Like the size of a baseball. Hooked it with a 5/0 EWG in the mouth, and cast that thing out. Watched it swim around for about 20 minutes and gave up. Threw the Pad Crusher out, and within 5 minutes had me a nice chunker. It was pretty funny. Quote

1234567 Posted September 18, 2013 Posted September 18, 2013 Hey guys, the first cold snap of the year should be coming soon (late Oct.nov) if there is such a thing in s. florida. When this happens drag a horny toad or whatever on the bottom super slow just outside the first weedline. I used to only night fish and what I noticed that when the temps dip, by accident I flashed my flashlight into the shoreline and saw glowing eyes everywhere! In my opinion the frogs took refuge to the water to stay warm during the cool night. Air temps that night were upper 50's. Needless to say I caught about 25 bass in two-3 hours I was there and left them biting. Just another option if you're out. Good luck guys! Quote
dsidle61 Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 Yea we prob will be going out in the AM and in the evening too. I'll PM you my number and you can text me and ill let you know what we are doing sounds good! Quote
dsidle61 Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 got out this evening to a pond over on off argyle. pulled in this 17". thats my 5th fish and i believe my total is at 84", Lou any confirmation on this?? Caught it on a wacky senko. missed a nice one on my frog dragging it through some grass right out front of a culvert. now im looking for some big guys to replace my 16s and 17s! 1 Quote
Super User AK-Jax86 Posted September 19, 2013 Super User Posted September 19, 2013 Lou I think you should start keeping track of the top 5 since the race is gettig close. Do something similar to how NE does it and when someone adds a fish post the list so people can see how much they need to catch ya boy lol Quote

Super User AK-Jax86 Posted September 19, 2013 Super User Posted September 19, 2013 Lou MCS is calling you out lol I know you won't stand for that. Go out and get you some inches Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted September 19, 2013 Author Super User Posted September 19, 2013 The good news is we still have time to fish and help our numbers, because I sure need it. I am glad you guys up in Jax are doing well. Notice the top five are all from Jax. That tells you something. My region is not primed and ready yet. But don't worry it will be. Quote

When that happens I have a feeling we will all be in trouble. Those south Florida fish stay at the all you can eat buffets that's why they are so fat Quote
Diggy Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 I just bought some new stick baits, vmc wacky and tournament circle hooks so that only means this weekend will be my weekend! Quote
JaxBasser Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 This month has been really bad for me. Almost no time to fish and when I do its all just little fish. Hopefully i'll get something in the next few days. Quote
CapitolP Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 1. Deepdishpanda has 97inches 2. Tightlines Jax has 91 inches 3.Dsidle has 84 inches 4. MCS has 83.5 inches 5. CapitolIP has 79 inches man, i don't check in for a couple days and POW i'll have updates soon enough though don't you worry Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted September 19, 2013 Author Super User Posted September 19, 2013 Yeah, with this group never get complacent, shifts in the numbers can happen at any moment. Especially, now that we are in the 3rd quarter. Quote
tightlinesjax Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 maybe a frog from BPS since I do have braid now....What kind? I don't want AK's hybrids. I want to try a real FROG Lol Go to Academy and get the store brand frog. Its like 4 bucks and ive caught plenty of fish on them. Quote
