Dink fest on Alamo Lake Saturday. Definitely heading back this fall for a good topwater day. 18 dinks on underspins. Trees are everywhere. Good confidence booster fishing a new body of water and figuring things out.

Had the pleasure of taking a late afternoon trip with the family. Feel super blessed to have a couple teenagers who love to go out fishing.

 

Fishing wasn't as good as I anticipated (65* water) but we still caught quite a few on underspins.

 

 

Another unusually big (for us) crappie

 

Good times!

Good day on Lake Havasu. Drop shotting margarita mutilator roboworms and green pumpkin biffle bugs on a swinghead.

Personal best smallmouth after 8 hours without a bite or even seeing evidence of fish.  Finally found them, took 8, best five 25 pounds, PB = 6-11.

First time out with the Stealth 5

First time fishing an A rig and well it works. I may have had to go swimming to retrieve it but it was worth is for this 4’4 chunk. Got to see the bite which was cool. I’d say I’m hooked on A rigs now.

Got out today after work 3-7. Got 8 on a spinnerbait with the best of those a 3-8 and one on a jig that weighed 4-8.

A jig? You feeling ok? Nice bass as always

The brownies have arrived!  The old man and I landed 40.  My best 5 went 25 and change.  his went almost 27.  Our big 5 went 28.5.  43-47 degree water.

That's a good day right there!

Hit the lake again today. I wasn’t about to miss the chance to throw the A rig again and I wasn’t disappointed! New PB largie that went for 5-6. Not bad for northern Illinois. I ended with three in under 2hrs with the smallest over 2lbs. The two pics are of the 5-6. I think I may spend any free hour I get this week at this place-the bite is that good. That’s a 4-4 and 5-6 in back to back visits.

Wowza!!!! That’s awesome. 43-47 is my favorite water temp, looks like you already know why. When you say arrived, did you order those smallmouth off Amazon?? Link please, asking for a friend

Had to go out again. They are really biting an A rig right now as I pulled another good one. This one went 4-9 and I added two other smaller ones. I had one pulling drag on a locked out curado DC and ended up pulling a single fish scale. Probably snagged but it still hurt for a while.

Here’s my 3.6lb bed fish, took about 15 minutes to get her to go

@A-Jay  The respect you show these amazing fish is incredible!  Most people would boat flip them and they would flop around the boat for a bit.  You net your fish and then make sure they get on their pad.  Fish would want to be caught so they could get this special treatment!  

Caps off!

Weighed in at 3.78 lbs.

A chilly rain all day and into Monday night quieted down last night's bite, but the Phish brothers beat dat skunk anyway with a few feisty buck bass, and none of my baits got murda'd by pickerel for once. Happy days.

And another successful hour of A rig fishing. The smallest was a low 3, then a 3-12, and 5-0. The 5-0 ate with about 6ft of line out which was quite fun.

 

In order: low 3, 5-0, 3-12

I’ve heard of a basshead. But bass no head? That’s a new one! 

[Nelson Wormefeller]

I'm uglier than the fish, can't bear to be internetted.

I’m pretty sure that every BR member has lost their head over a fish at some point in their life. ?  

[Biglittle8]

Took the boat out to Sutton lake, the bass were hammering bait fish. My buddy caught two decent fish.

[PhishLI]

Just got back from an over-nighter grind of a wade with some pals. The original theme was supposed to be BIG swimbaits, but they wouldn't play along, so we eventually capitulated. I went really small and got the bottom two on a 3" Dark Sleeper and a 4" MB Hazedong Shad. LOL. So much for BIG bait dreams, for now anyway. We all hit good numbers and some nice chunks, so smiles all around.

 

P.S. My buddy wore "that shirt" again just for you @TnRiver46 ?
