ICU812 Posted June 12, 2011 Posted June 12, 2011 Stopped in again at my little shore spot to see if I could catch a quick bass. The day before I hadn’t had any luck with plastics or jigs so I brought a little jointed rapala this time, thinking the fish wanted more of an active lure – turns out I was right cuz this little dink smashed the rapala on my first cast. Lol I was hoping this might mean bass a little bigger might like the lure as well, so I made my way down the bank and ran into this little chunk. Not too huge, but 15” and chunky so I was happy for the day lol Quote
MaineBassMan Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 Cool! Maybe you don't need to get that boat rigged up? Thats funny I threw a crank a lot this past weekend and didn't get any takers. i want to know where the heck you found the sun? This weather system followed me up from Augusta and won't go away. I'm on vacation and I'm wondering if it's worth my time to fishing in this cold wet weather? I know I'll catch fish but frankly I'm sick of being wet all the time! Ok I'm done crying now. Quote
ICU812 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Posted June 14, 2011 Haha lol good to hear from you! Actually that is from a few days ago (late last week, not sure the exact day but I think Friday) at the spot we both know and love. The forum's been giving me lots of errors lately so I was just able to post it. But yeah, I worked my way up towards those rocks that you suggested and caught it about halfway up! I DEFINTELY need the boat rigged up haha I really can't wait! My humminbird arrived in the mail the other day and I almost have the funds worked out for a minn kota! So once it's fixed (from me not winterizing etc ) it should be good to really track down some quality fish. As far as the weather I hear you it's been pretty bad lately. I've been going out trying some new spots lately (partly in order to scope out good landings for when my boat's ready ) and haven't been having any luck. Today after checking out a landing I fished the outlet of a new body of water for a little bit and had a few strikes, one of which I brought up pretty close to me and which looked like a trout of some sort. Looked like pinkish-reddish by the brief surface flash I got. Right after said flash the trout spit my lure though I was pretty excited though - I've never caught a decent trout and it seemed like that's what I had on my line! I'm gonna try a little each day but I really can't wait till the weather brightens up for us! If you come over by my way during your vacation let me know! Quote

I probably won't be going your way during my vacation due to the weather. However, I have a lot of regular time off with my job. Mostly during the week days. If I ever get down your way and I don't have a fishing partner with me I'll contact you before hand and you could jump aboard. Quote
ICU812 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Posted June 14, 2011 Man that'd be crazy! Then I could show you how to actually catch some fish so you don't always come up empty lololol JUST KIDDING! No but seriously that would be a great time man! Quote

ICU812 Posted June 15, 2011 Author Posted June 15, 2011 Lol yeah I hear you the bite can be tough! It'd still be a good time though! And I think you’re past the ability to look like a fool with all the bucket-mouths you’ve boated! If you really ARE ever in the area and looking to fish I’d be down to pitch jigs in a puddle with you lol and you’d probably STILL pull a 4 lber!! Quote
