Went back out and hammered them right where I left them last weekend. Got a bunch of nice ones and got 20lbs in 5 consecutive casts. All on a drop shot Maxscent Flatworm and Flatnose minnow. 

First fish of the day was a fat 3lber, and it had a 40” pike chasing it like a shark. I tried like heck to catch the pike after I released the bass, but to my surprise it wouldn’t hit.

Well that’s pretty awesome! I guess the pike wanted the real thing. How’s the durability on those flat worms??

They’re not the most durable, but they catch the heck out of them. I can usually get several fish from one bait, and if after a couple fish I clip off a 1/4” of the head, it’ll keep going. With the drop shot, I find the smaller bass are the worst for throwing it when they jump right at the boat. I have my net right by me so I can usually scoop up the bait before it sinks too far, unless I’m into a big fish, then I’m more concerned about the bass than the bait.

Mixing Huk with Columbia - like putting a Shimano on a Daiwa rod ?

Finally had a break from softball games and a couple hours to get out after work today. It is still hot and when I got on the water it was still 88 degrees. One bite in the couple hours, but if I can only catch one, I guess a 4-02 is better than nothing. First good one I have caught in a month. That time on the water sure makes a difference.

Hit the Tittabawassee up today. Made it as far up stream as state street in Saginaw before, I chickened out over the depth.  Kind of a slow day only caught 3 and this one was the best.  Caught on a LC 1.5 I forgot the name but it’s in picture.  Lost the fish of the day at the boat on a chigger craw.

A stiff westerly wind had a few shallow water bass chewing today ~

Huh, you actually caught a Large Mouth?

[A-Jay]

I know ~ I think he was lost.

Seems like an invasive species round these parts

I had a small job to look at out on Georgian Bay today, so the kid came with me and after I checked out the job we headed for the big water and proceeded to hammer the smallmouth once again. 
Well over 50 bass between the two of us, and several nice sized ones as well. Largest was about two gobies shy of 5lbs on the scale.

Had a great weekend with friends that were visiting our area. They stayed on my favorite lake and I was able to fish at their cabin’s dock. I caught this nice Largemouth on a T-rigged Rage Menace.

 

 

We also fished and kayaked at my local river. I was able to get some fish on the Whopper Plopper.

 

 

And the Blooper

Only one over 3 this afternoon. Storm rolled through about 2:00 and rained enough to rain out the softball game so I was able to get out for a couple hours. This one hammered a Siebert Grid Iron Jig in black/blue with a smallie beaver trailer. Just 3-10 but I have fished longer periods with nothing to show for it LOL

 As I was heading to the ramp at 0530 I noticed the outside temperature display on the trucks rear view mirror was 54 degrees. This was a drop in temperature from yesterday morning’s 63 degrees at the same time. I was hoping this might get the fish thinking fall was not too far off and start putting on the feed bag. 
 Dropping the boat in at the last half of an outgoing tide, water temp was at 75 degrees and change. What became a blue sky thanks to firefighters battling the regional fires for almost two weeks I wasn’t disappointed by the fishing. I was able to hookup with a drag pulling 5.2lb crankbait fish to start the morning off right.
 I then switched tactics and started to punch the mats. On one pitch, an area the size of a garbage can lid rose up and a good fish came out of the vegetation. I watched as the fish crashed down my bait and then my rod loaded up. I set the hook and felt the fish for a brief moment before reeling in a trashed bait covered in grass. My second best of the day, a 4.8lb punch fish, also that came from the same area a little while later.
