Started fishing today at 4pm, nice cloudy sky and some wind. Wife rigged up the texas rig and i threw a jerk bait and first cast caught a bass by a culvert outlet. She caught bass 2nd cast and she never stopped catching. She stood in the same place from 4 to 9:30 pm and caught 25 bass and 4 sunnies all on t rig with 4/0 hook.

 

She got so tired of reeling in the bass that she put a bobber on her t rig and was still hammering them just by wiggling her line a bit. Her best one was 4.5 lb. I was off trying all different lures as i get bored with t rig and i was catching them on a 3/8 oz keel hook and a 8 inch berkley kingtail red, then green pumpkin.

Then i switched to a black hollow body frog and caught a few and then spinners and chatterbaits but no takers on them. Tried tubes and jigs and no hits so i decided to wackey rig a senko on a wormhook and caught a few.

 

The mosquitoes came out to bite at 9:15 pm and they were so thick we had to get the heck outa there, just kamakazied us relentlessly on my face hands. Got home at 11:15 and took my underware off and found a tick, they like my undies for some reason as thats where i always find one.

Sounds like a good night. Sometimes it’s good to get schooled by someone so that they only want to go back out again. ?

My wife fishes a 3-4 inch grub and nothing else. She frequently catches more fish than I do in spite of my $$$ worth of “stuff”.
