Bass_Fanatic Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 Not much of a report because I only made 3 cast all weekend due to having non fishing inlaws with me. We were just boat riding thursday afternoon and I stopped by a hump that I usually catch good on to make a few cast. On my 3rd cast, I caught a 11.5 pounder on top of the hump in 8 foot of water on a big watermellon red worm. It did not fit in the livewell on the boat that I was in so we just took pics and let it go. I have been fishing hard all year and I caught the biggest bass of my life just goofing off, I wish I had taken my boat out so I could have brought it into Toledo Town to get weighed but I guess that is how it goes. Congrats man! That is awesome. I bet you made it look easy to your inlaws lol. Quote
hunterfishes Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 hey Sacalait_38 that is outstanding i would love to have that bite.  I didn't get to fish this weekend but got out at daylight this morning  still no shallow or early top water bite. I fished 6 mile and the main lake points from there to housen then Indian mounds on the deep edge of the ridge. Throwing  Texas rigged  ole monster worms. but  never  got the hook into a fish had  several small ones  bump it but  that was all.  there was a lot of schooling activity  at 6 mile but  all were small.  hate to ask but  are the humps your fishing bare or is there grass on them  I have been fishing the outside grass line in about 17 to 20 Quote
Sacalait_38 Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 They are in San Miguel, no grass on them but there is alot of timber and logs that hold the fish. You cant see the timber anymore because the water is so high, but it is there. I call it a hump but it might actually be a ridge or underwater point, I think it runs all the way to the bank but its shallowest further away. It holds alot of fish all year. Quote
Sacalait_38 Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 My in laws are really not into fishing, they thought I was crazy for freaking out over that fish, then they got mad because I let it go. They thought we would eat it lol. Quote
hunterfishes Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 Well There the one's who are crazy  that's a fish to freak out over  LOL.  Again congratulations and thanks for the report.  good luck on getting another like that. Quote
Super User Catt Posted August 12, 2014 Author Super User Posted August 12, 2014 Shot! Anything over 6 & I'm giddy Quote
LaRoper Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 W oW! It was HOT! We did manage to find a few fish in deep water. Grass line was as at 19 ft, bass holding in 20 to 25 ft of water near creek beds. Caught 8, 3 keepers, largest just under 3 pounds. Water temp was at 89.8 deg, stained water. Figured out I didn't drink enough water, bad headache after fishing to 1pm in the heat. Back to work, no fishing for me until late September. Blake Quote
Bass_Fanatic Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I'll finally be able to get away and fish Friday night and in my club tournament Saturday night. Having a 2nd child slows down fishing for a bit lol. Quote

Bass_Fanatic Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Fished 11hours last night. One bite, but atleast she was 8lbs. It was tough out there!! Came in 4th place out of 20 boats if that tells you anything. Quote
RonnieF Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Wow. Congrats on the nice fish. I heard it's been tough lately. I'll be there next weekend. Quote
hunterfishes Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Hope everyone  got to fish this weekend.   We were on the bend out of fin and feather.  It was a tough weekend,  and  my son and I could not get a limit both days.  We had 3 fish  Saturday and only managed  a couple of short fish Sunday. I basically went to drive the boat  as I failed to put a keeper in the boat  either day, however my son bailed ole dad out  he managed 3 fish Saturday. 2 were decent  fish, but his 3rd was a 7.63 lber  that won big bass.  all fish were caught in 4 to 7 foot of water  around the hay grass and pepper grass inside the hydrilla line.  we started with wacky worms and were able to get bit until around 10:30 in the morning. When the wind got up  he switched to a shakey head with the same  zoom mag trick worm and caught the big fish off an isolated patch of hydrilla color was watermelon candy red.  Sunday the bigger fish  seemed to  gone from the shallow  grass but the wind  was also a lot higher.  The fish came from  6 mile and Housen. good luck to everyone hope y'all catch them Quote
