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.

Cold side striper and largemouth.jpg

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

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!

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.

One of my first few bass of the new year choked a Duo Realis Rozante.

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

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.

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 :cry:

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.

Temps in the twenties, wind chill in the teens, but they still have to eat.

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.

One heck of a day! So, how long did it take you to call your shot? Just an incredible day that we all want to have any time of year. Continued good fishing.JB

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.

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.
