The coangler and I with nice ones

I made it out for a couple hours today.  Georgia winter, so I actually had to wear pants and a jacket.  It was windy, overcast, and the tail end of a front and that led me to have a good feeling on the way out to my bank busting spot.

 

I really wanted them to be on the jerkbait, but it seems my air temperatures and water temperatures have my bass acting like it's late fall.  They seem to be smacking bait.  They were certainly smacking the H2O Xpress lipless crank I was throwing in sexy shad.  I caught 6 off of it, with four being between 2-3 pounds.  Good fish for the pond I'm at.  I was having a good day.

 

Then I went down the side of the pond where a creek feeds it and starting tossing a finesse jig, a 5/16oz Boss Finesse Flip with a Boss BlackBrownAmber skirt on it, finesse cut all pretty and such.  On the back of it is a 3.25" YUM Craw Chunk in Craw.  One side looks like a turd, the other like a pumpkin.  Oh well.  It caught my PB.

 

It also caught this one.

 

 

She went 5.7 pounds.  My son's was $19.99.

Congrats on the hawg (and the great father/son pic)!

Thanks, @NorcalBassin!  Man, there's a lot of Norcals in the @ tag!  Yep.  Trying to make memories.  Hoping to turn that young man into a machine before he discovers running the roads and women.

That's a pretty green bass (and I ain't talking about the stuffed one).

She is a good looking girl!  She swam off really pretty on the release.  I should have taken more pictures, she had some old scratches from bumping into cover I'm guessing and a single black dot on her head.

 

I'll know her when I catch her again.
