MaineBassMan Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Well this was my best worst day of fishing ever. I fished a new lake today that I will be fishing a tournament on in two weeks. I must of made a couple of thousand cast or at least it feels like it. I only caught five bass and my father only caugth two. My first bass of the day was a dink largemouth, not even a keeper. My second bass was a 5lbs even largemouth, my first five pound bass this season. Then my third bass for the day was a 5lbs 07oz largemouth that was very angry and didn't want to get its picture taken. Then I caught a dink smallmouth and then I finished my day with a 2lbs 09oz largemouth My father ended up catching a 2lbs 04oz largemouth and then topped it off with a 4lbs 09oz largemouth. After his big fish the bite went south and we never caught another fish. I would have been happy with our five fish weight in the tournament with a total of 19lbs 13oz. My first five pound bass of the season at exactly 5lbs even same one Next three pics are of the 5lbs 07oz bass My Dads 4lbs 09oz bass The funny part of the day were these two loons. Loons are protected in this state and there are "Do not bother the loons" signs posted all over the lake. Well I'm about to call the game warden and file a formal complaint on these two loons because they wouldn't leave us alone and kept trying to eat our cranks. We had to leave and go fish a new spot because of them. ;D There is no zoom in the photos they were that close and you could watch them swim under the boat going after the cranks. He is actually looking under water and then when he sees the bait approaching the boat he would dive for it. Quote
D4u2s0t Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 nice fish, and loons are cool too! I love their howls Quote
shimmy Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 That 5.7 is a beauty. Even if you caught just one fish all day and it was that one, it would have been an incredible day. Numbers just don't matter (unless you're in a tournament). Good luck next week Quote

Brewerbass Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Lol bet I know where you were fishing. Was on it Sunday. My stepson dosnt want to go back, ha ha. Not a fun lake to fish for numbers but it has some real big ones in it. We have weighed some 7s and 8s in it. Nice fish and it should fish really good in a couple of weeks. Quote
