Super User buzzed bait Posted May 16, 2016 Super User Posted May 16, 2016 Went back to the place where i lost a big one last weekend with a buddy. We launched the kayaks yesterday morning around 6AM and it was cold and windy (i know this is a relative term) but for Georgia, it was COLD and WINDY!! I tried to get some action on the buzzbait/spinnerbait on the edges of the pads, but nothing going there. I could see and hear some topwater activity in the thick of the pads though. i opted to pull out my brand spanking new spro frog and put it to work in the pads. After about 30 minutes of that i saw some activity near a nice little open pocket so i worked my frog through there a couple times, nothing. Tossed a weightless t rig senko in there and saw a swirl, but no strike. So threw the frog in there again and CRASH-BANG-SLURP! Hookeset away and she went straight for the pads.... after a little tangle with her in the pads, i pulled her up and realized it was a little bigger than i thought it was at first! Right at 22", but no weight on her (see my other thread about needing scales after losing mine last week). Only caught 1 more dink all day, but this fatty had my spirits high all day! 13 Quote

Super User DogBone_384 Posted May 22, 2016 Super User Posted May 22, 2016 Awesome catch! Did you get the frog out of it OK? It is a sewer cap of a mouth, but that bait is deep! 1 Quote
