Super User FryDog62 Posted Thursday at 10:54 PM Super User Posted Thursday at 10:54 PM The sound made on a big sweeping hook set on a bladed jig or swim jig… where the drag slips for a split second before the hook embeds … Zzzhhunnntt! Don’t know how else to describe that sound but it’s golden 👍 What other sounds in bass fishing do you like best? 7 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted Thursday at 11:02 PM Super User Posted Thursday at 11:02 PM The distant call of a lonely loon in the fog. The caw-caw cry of a bald eagle. The initial cold start of the ProXS. The swishy sound of the Pro-V Bass coming off plane. And finally, the sound of drag on my wife's reel slipping just a little bit on the hookset. A-Jay 13 Quote
Super User Bird Posted Thursday at 11:19 PM Super User Posted Thursday at 11:19 PM Love the sound of a whopper Plopper. Loons have a magical sound. bladed jig transmitting sound through braid.....tap tap tap. Me saying " oh this is a good one " 😁 Least favorite sound is waves crashing the bank from wake boats. 2 Quote

Super User king fisher Posted Thursday at 11:50 PM Super User Posted Thursday at 11:50 PM The sound of the whole lake waking up as the sun starts to appear in the horizon. The high pitch squeal of an old well broke in buzzbait. Blurp, blurp blurp of a Jitterbug. My wife telling me I need to take the weekend off and go fishing. 6 2 Quote

Super User Jar11591 Posted yesterday at 12:23 AM Super User Posted yesterday at 12:23 AM The loons calling to each other. The subtle “plop plop” of the trolling motor. Braid through guides when a fish is hooked. When fishing in the fall, a hunter’s gunshot in the distance. 4 Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted yesterday at 12:52 AM Global Moderator Posted yesterday at 12:52 AM The blowup of a bass hitting a frog in the slop followed by the high pitched whine of the braid after the solid hook-set. As others have said, the call of a loon as the summer sun is falling behind the trees. 5 Quote
Super User Swamp Girl Posted yesterday at 01:05 AM Super User Posted yesterday at 01:05 AM I love owls hooting in the night. I also like when swallows swoop and veer so close you can hear the whirrr of their blurry wings. Speaking of wings beating, I like when geese fly so low you can hear their wings too. And woodpeckers! However, I think the funniest sound I hear is ospreys. They're big, fierce birds that sound like songbirds: And I like the great splash when ospreys dive on a bass. 7 Quote
Super User GreenPig Posted yesterday at 01:06 AM Super User Posted yesterday at 01:06 AM A school of bass blowing up on shad. The abrupt silencing of my running buzzbait. 3 Quote
Lottabass Posted yesterday at 11:21 AM Posted yesterday at 11:21 AM So many birds singing in the spring. The sounds of nature sooth me when I'm struggling to catch fish. 1 Quote
Super User BrianMDTX Posted yesterday at 11:54 AM Super User Posted yesterday at 11:54 AM The “schlorp” when a big bass sucks down a popper. Hearing my bait “skip-skip-skip” under cover and then watching the slack line take off and the rod bends. The buzzing of dragonflies in summer when casting baits around reeds. 2 Quote
Super User Mobasser Posted yesterday at 12:08 PM Super User Posted yesterday at 12:08 PM The almost silence of launching my canoe at first light. 4 Quote

Here's a song I wrote and I dedicate it to us. I sure hope nobody stole my song and maybe changed words here and there to disguise their theft: Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to fish with you again My little lure just lan-an-ded A mighty bass swirled, so grand it was And that bass that was branded in my brain Still remains Within the sound of silence Past restless dreams, we fish alone Seeing reeds and shoreline stone 'Neath the halo of a full moon Wondering if we launched a wee too soon When our eyes were stabbed by the flash of a rising Sun That split the night And touched the sound of silence 7 1 Quote

Lottabass Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago There are many ways to describe the sound of a big lunker wackin' a topwater. "Schlorp", "Ka-blooie", etc. I don't know how to write it but it's the sound of a '54 Buick being dropped in the lake!!! 1 Quote

Skunkmaster-k Posted 23 hours ago Posted 23 hours ago A screeching wheel bearing is all I can come up with right now. It’s beautiful when it’s on someone else’s trailer. 1 5 Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted 18 hours ago Super User Posted 18 hours ago The sound of rain coming down on the lake. That usually means I will be the only person out on the water that day. 2 Quote
Super User BrianMDTX Posted 18 hours ago Super User Posted 18 hours ago @Swamp Girl I love those lyrics! 1 1 Quote
Super User WRB Posted 18 hours ago Super User Posted 18 hours ago The sound of silence on the water being broken by a load splash. Pine song the wind makes from those majestic tall trees. Flock of honkers barking at sunrise. Cry of the Loon at a remote fly in northern lake I can hear in my mind. Dad net I can hear in my dreams. Tom 3 Quote

little giant Posted 16 hours ago Posted 16 hours ago The sound (and smell) of the coffeemaker at 5 am. The laughter of my son catching his first fish at 5 years old! 3 Quote
