boostr Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 All This... For all this... I did lose a big one, so that made the day worse, but I didn't get skunked... 3 Quote
riverbasser Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 Had the same problem yesterday except my one fish was probably 7 ounces. I also lost about 6 jigs. Tough days are all part of the sport though. 1 Quote
S. Sass Posted May 22, 2016 Posted May 22, 2016 I went yesterday for a short stay and I did get skunked. I had 3 on and lost all three before getting them in the boat. Losing three well hooked in a row hasn't happened to me for as long as I can remember. One jumped and spit it, one was in a tree branch in the water and as I pulled the limb in he removed himself. And the third just spit it out after about 10 feet of fight. Bad days happen but I'm going back after lunch today to make amends. Quote
Super User Master Bait'r Posted May 22, 2016 Super User Posted May 22, 2016 It's been tough lately for me too. Oh well. I guess that's why they don't call it "catching". At at least the view is nice, the beer is cold, the seats are comfy and I get to mess with fishing gear in peace haha 2 Quote
Super User Darren. Posted May 22, 2016 Super User Posted May 22, 2016 Yup, beats a skunk any day of the week! I'd have loved to catch that over a skunked outing 1 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted May 23, 2016 Super User Posted May 23, 2016 At least you can say that you caught a bass. Quote
Super User Paul Roberts Posted May 23, 2016 Super User Posted May 23, 2016 It happens. Hope you enjoyed your day though. 1 Quote
boostr Posted May 23, 2016 Author Posted May 23, 2016 A day on the water beats a day at the office. There were allot of beds with spawners, but even standing to scout on the kayak I couldn't get a good view so by the time I saw them they saw me. There were some biggns'. Actually the one I lost was on a bed I returned to after I made a mental note of where it was located. This was the only way for me to have a chance at them by returning and casting from out of view. 1 Quote
