Super User buzzed bait Posted March 30, 2015 Super User Posted March 30, 2015 I went Friday night to the local pond and saw a couple fish up shallow and worked them all night with no luck. I went back Saturday morning determined to catch them. When I approached the area, I could see the little guy from yesterday and then I saw this dark colored torpedo cruising by and realized that was the big girl…. So I spent a while trying to catch them. No scales or ruler, but not even mad about it this time! After much trial and error, I finally caught the smaller guy to commit to a Missile Baby D Bomb…. TWICE. I caught him twice on that same bait, but 2 different colors. He would pick up a worm, pick up a jig, but not commit until he saw that baby d bomb and he inhaled it! After catching him twice I decided to ease around the pond and let the area settle down. I came back an hour or so later and was determined to catch the big girl and more so, determined to catch it on a newer combo that hadn’t yet seen a fish! I had some 40# braid with a 15# floro leader tied to a Siebert’s Finesse Jig in PBJ Smoke color. What finally got this girl to eat though, was the Damiki Air Craw trailer I added, if you haven’t seen them, check them out. I watched her pick it up and take off and when I set the hook she got ill! The new Cumara 6’8”MH and the Chronarch Ci4+ handled her like it was nothing! These selfies aren’t doing it justice, but this fish was a butterball! Awesome day out even with the wind ripping. 4 Quote
