X-Rap Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Well I made the migration from the frozen tundra of Pennslyvania to the 82 degree weather of Fort Myers Florida. I went with my girlfriend and her family. They have a nice condo in a gated community with 7 lakes. It's Heaven! Hawg bass, hardly any pressure, and its all within a one minute walk! I got a couple nice ones and my first ever drop shot fish, which was a dink but it was still cool. Quote
Jake. Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Most of those fish are fatties. Nice Job. Quote
Under the Radar Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 GREAT fish X-Rap. What did the other fish come on? What was the heaviest one? Quote
flippincrazy Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Nice fish. Ft. Myers is nice, lots of little places to fish and find nice bass. The junebug colored worm is the real deal, did you catch most of your fish on that? Quote
JUST Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Sounds like a pretty good trip. The last few look like pretty good. Quote
X-Rap Posted January 24, 2008 Author Posted January 24, 2008 GREAT fish X-Rap. What did the other fish come on? What was the heaviest one? All the big boys came on a white Boo Yah Pond Magic spinner bait. Surprisingly it way out fished the regular size spinner baits. I was just burning it right under the surface near any bait fish activity and clumps of reeds. I didn't have a scale on me so im not quite sure what they weighed. I'm sure the bigger ones were over 5 but tell me what you guys think they weighed Quote
Tokyo Tony Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Sweet fish there X-Rap Man that looks like an awesome place to fish - gotta love those little ponds within walking distance. So how p'd off was your GF after that trip? ;D Quote
FivePoundBluegill Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 Wow X-Rap looks like you had a GREAT trip. Over how many days did you catch those fish? Also about the drop shot....most fish that you catch on it will be around that size. For me the drop shot is the rig that catches me mass numbers of dinks but hardly any good size bass.... Maybe its different for other people but I seem to catch a dink on every other catch when i use a drop shot.... Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted January 24, 2008 Super User Posted January 24, 2008 I'm glad you enjoyed your trip down here to SAUNA S. Florida, Quote

I'm sure the bigger ones were over 5 but tell me what you guys think they weighed Hard to guess the weight from most of those pics. I think the second fish is a 2LBer. The 4th fish is probably a 5-6 Lber. That is a hawg. The fish laying on the ground next to the rod is probably a 4 LBer... just guessing. Quote
