Ksam1234 Posted September 20, 2017 Posted September 20, 2017 Soooo today I got to go out this morning, 5:30 am, slight wind.. sun has barely started to come up.. pick up my new cavitrons and booyah buzzbait and start slinging them.. well I had 3 blow ups and 3 fish all pretty good!(idk what it is about buzzbait but they just produce big fish) .. so I keep following the weedline with this random tree sticking out, of course I cast over and BOOM! I thought a shark hit it.. got hooked up but it buried itself in the weeds and lost it... so I keep tossing the buzzbait and what do you know he strikes again! This time no hookup.. I tried for another 15 minutes but nothing. So I keep fishing, it's been about an hour now and I decide to try once more for that fish.. I changed buzzbaita for a different sound and omg! Came flying out of the water a good foot and smashes back in! This time I know she is hooked up good .. after a few minute battle this 4 1/2 pound beauty comes out. 13 Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted September 20, 2017 Global Moderator Posted September 20, 2017 Nice one! I love top water myself. I'm more of a frog guy but I've been contemplating breaking out the 'ole buzzbait and pop-R next time out. If they miss ALWAYS throw it right back! 1 Quote

You know I have never had any luck with frogs, I tried frogs the first time this summer and never even had a blow up, I have spros and livetarget , maybe next year. But I do love all topwater 1 Quote

Actually neither, I thought about getting a trailer hook though, I have never used either of them on any kind of topwater. Or spinnerbait. 1 Quote

Super User JustJames Posted September 20, 2017 Super User Posted September 20, 2017 Congrat it was so exciting wasn't it? I don't wanna say I love topwater but sure do love to see blow up on top water. I don't fish top water very often just when I start my trip early or I see some top water activities. This past two weeks I lost around 4 fish all come undone with first head shake 2 on R2S bubble walker and 2 on WP110?. 1 Quote

I'm the opposite I usually have very good luck with top water and that surprises me! Loosing a fish with a whopper plopper! Those hooks are so sharp I'm suprised you can even get them out normally Quote
Super User JustJames Posted September 20, 2017 Super User Posted September 20, 2017 Nah just a bad luck I guess and my skill is not there yet, beside I de-barb those treble hook recently. 1 Quote

I was using a black cavitron 3/8 oz and switched over to a booyah red and back 3/8 with the two holes. 1 1 Quote
Super User soflabasser Posted September 27, 2017 Super User Posted September 27, 2017 Good report, thank you for posting it. I agree that topwater fishing is the best and most exiting way to catch a bass or any other species of fish. 1 Quote
Attila Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Ya, topwater is the shizzle. Nothing beats seeing the wake of a largie traveling in shallow water to beat up a hollow body frog or the toilet bowl flushing sound a smallmouth makes when inhaling a walking bait...:) 1 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted October 2, 2017 Super User Posted October 2, 2017 Nice going! It really gets you going when that big splash comes! Quote
