hawgenvy Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Yep, it's a Livetarget Golden Shiner, and it has been a great lure for me in the winter and spring. I always change out the hooks. The lures are not cheap but they are durable. After many hours of use, superficial tooth marks are the only damage. 1 Quote
Super User everythingthatswims Posted December 28, 2016 Super User Posted December 28, 2016 These did not come from the 70 degree nuclear water, had to switch things up today and fish in cold water like the rest of the world has to 6 Quote
Super User everythingthatswims Posted December 30, 2016 Super User Posted December 30, 2016 Caught a couple little guys dragging/dead sticking a jig in a pond yesterday. The best method was honestly to drag the jig about a foot and then do something on my phone for a while, then drag it a little more. They wanted it SLOW! 4 Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted December 31, 2016 Global Moderator Posted December 31, 2016 Got out the first time since the baby was born. The fish were not very nice but we did catch a couplegood ones. I had some baits I've been working on to test out and all our fish came on those so that was a nice bonus. My buddy had big fish with a thick 20" fish that went 5 1/4. 9 Quote
Super User fishinfiend Posted December 31, 2016 Super User Posted December 31, 2016 great fish guys. Keep them coming! Quote

Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted January 5, 2017 Global Moderator Posted January 5, 2017 Enjoy it while you can!!!! EPA shut down all the hot holes on the Tennessee river. They are now lukewarm holes. But it still draws in fish Quote
IndianaFinesse Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 We're going back and forth between having the main lake ice free but the coves still iced up, and ice thick enough to ice fish on. A week and a half ago I was ice fishing, and three days ago I plowed through some ice on the edges of the lake to do some open water fishing. The weather has been a rollercoaster, one day it's a high of 14 degrees and snow, the next it's in the fifty's and raining. Quote
Super User everythingthatswims Posted January 5, 2017 Super User Posted January 5, 2017 Had a pretty good redemption today, my little brother has a tournament on the 19th so we went to look for some fish on Lake Anna. Found them in 35FOW and put a dozen in the boat, biggest was the low 4 I'm holding, she wouldn't sit still on the scales but I wanted to get her back since they can have a tough time coming from that deep water. I apologize for the scratched out background, that was for a little fun to send to his friends who will also be fishing that tournament, then I realized it was the only picture I had of the fish! I think this was my last outing before I head back to school, gonna be a long winter 11 Quote
Super User N Florida Mike Posted January 5, 2017 Super User Posted January 5, 2017 First decent fish of the year. What was weird was that it had line coming out its poop hole.I guess someone cut the line or broke it off , and the fish swallowed the line. 6 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 8, 2017 Global Moderator Posted January 8, 2017 Temps in the twenties, wind chill in the teens, but they still have to eat. 13 Quote
Super User J._Bricker Posted January 8, 2017 Super User Posted January 8, 2017 Nice fatty!!! What was the water temperature that day? Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 8, 2017 Global Moderator Posted January 8, 2017 That was earlier today, it was 41 degrees at that spot. 1 Quote
Super User J._Bricker Posted January 8, 2017 Super User Posted January 8, 2017 Thank you sir! There's hope for the rest of us 1 Quote
budgetbassin Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I finally had a chance to fish this year and caught my first fish of 2017 even if it is a dink. 4 Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 12, 2017 Super User Posted January 12, 2017 Nice fish, great pic! 1 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 14, 2017 Global Moderator Posted January 14, 2017 Had the first 100+ fish day of the year yesterday before the big storm gets here. Largemouth, smallmouth, whites, wiper, walleye, crappie, and drum all found their way to the boat. Caught fish on swimbaits, bladed jigs, traps, cranks, traps, beavers, even a float-n-fly. I literally caught fish on my first and last cast of the day when I got called off the water. This was my first cast of the day. 8 Quote
Super User JustJames Posted January 14, 2017 Super User Posted January 14, 2017 100+ fish, ill be d**n. Im happy with just one fish every trip. 3 Quote

Just an incredible day that we all want to have any time of year. Continued good fishing.JB 2 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 14, 2017 Global Moderator Posted January 14, 2017 They were so thick the last 2 hours that it was a bite every cast. It was so bad that if I'd hook one and lose it, all I did was stop reeling and another one would grab it. I had video where I was casting my RES and while it was sinking I was starting my camera but a fish would run off with it like I was fishing a jig instead. Quote
Airman4754 Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Caught this in the creek about a minute from my house. It fought like a spot, looks like a largie, but has red eyes. This Tennesee River area is ridiculous. If there is water over a foot deep there is a bass worth catching in it. Not sure why the picture is sideways but you'd rather look at the fish than me so it works out. 7 Quote
