Super User BASSclary Posted March 18, 2012 Super User Posted March 18, 2012 Nailed 4 all together with my dad today at Aquia Beach, we were only there for an hour, before I had to go to work. They were nailing just about any green plastic you can throw. Looks good. 1 Quote

outdoorsman110 Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 Nailed 4 all together with my dad today at Aquia Beach, we were only there for an hour, before I had to go to work. They were nailing just about any green plastic you can throw. Looks good. My girl and i passed y'all, we were lake hopping, went to the city docks in fredericksburg, smith lake, aquia harbour and lunga. Got several bites including some hits on a frog. But no fish caught. Going out again tomorrow. Quote
quanjig Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Thanks Troy. We did ok in the tx today, 16.09. Winners just slayed them! Two bags over 26 and 4 others over 20. Still impressive for our 6 fish limit for buddy tx's! 3 fish over 6lbs with the biggest at 6.66 lbs. Partner and I each missed big fish that would have put us over 20lbs. Overall it was a fun day for the first tx of the year! Quote
Super User Nitrofreak Posted March 19, 2012 Super User Posted March 19, 2012 Thanks for the post!! I'm still trying to land something off the spinnerbait. The spinner should be working, where when and how are you using it? The spinner is nothing more than a fancy jig, have you tried using it like a jig yet? Toss it in some cover, let it fall, twitch it, let it fall again, keep repeating until you are out of the strike zone then slow roll it back to the boat. Quote
Super User Nitrofreak Posted March 19, 2012 Super User Posted March 19, 2012 Anyone have any thoughts on what this weather is going to do to the spawn? It may cause a few to spawn a little early, but I look for the weather to make more of them stage a little sooner, the biggest thing I think is going to have an impact on is the bait fish, not many have been killed off this past winter so the fishing may be a little more difficult to develop a consistancy, I think it is just going to make you fish a lot smarter this year than in the past couple of years.

Fat-G Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Seeing some beds recently, but no bass on them yet. The males are moving up and fanning out, then moving off for a while. A couple fish have spawned in most of my waters already. Kind of wierd funk right now. Got a couple on a 3:16 FS gill floater the other day and a sissy rising son. Quote
Fat-G Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 my buddy caught a nice one on an og wake and a couple 4's on a 10" TT. We haven't caught a good fish in a couple weeks... Quote
heyitskirby Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 2 lber on Buggs Island in the cove by the house. Threw a watermelon senko away from the dock into some bushes. Water is WAY up and, but mostly clearing. Quote
SteveinVA Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Hit a private pond/lake on Sunday. caught about 20 some odd small ones. Nothing of any size really , largest maybe 2 lbs. Mainly using purple/blue senkos, wacky rigged, and tossing them right up to steep bank with a decent dropoff in the water then twitching them back to the boat. Got one on a pointer jerk bait, and one on a jig with a cayfish rage tail as a trailer. Was sitting off a point checking out the water(it was really clear) watching the smaller fish moving around and two bigguns swam past the boat out of the deep and into the shallower area. I do believe they are definitly on the move. Also tried using smaller square bill clackin rap red/black, 3" bluegill pointer jerk bait and swim baits. not one fish on those Quote
craww Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 Saw several crappie on the beds Saturday, Which usually spawn first. Every bluegill and bass under 12'' seemed to be right on the bank. Bigger fish were in a funk and NOT active at all. Quote

Usually I just toss it out, reel it in. Quote
Ej Thomas Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 What's up guys been a few days since I was on. Been a busy month, had two tourneys one on anna and the second on buggs. Buggs is on fire right now me and my boater took 1st and 3rd, for the regions first tournament. Him 1st me 3rd my big tournament is this sat on Anna. Prefished yesterday and love is in the air or water. Bad feeling that these fish are in that act of spawning. Never had to site fish for a tourney, hope Anna is not where I cut my teeth. As a co not looking forward,but we are a team. If anyone got some ideas on clear, deep water bed fishing send me some. To everyone on the tread enjoying the stories, keep em coming. Quote
Super User Nitrofreak Posted March 21, 2012 Super User Posted March 21, 2012 HELL YEA Ej !!! Nice job dude and congrats !!!! Anna is going to be tough,really tough in the upcoming weeks, lots of things happening, I think you should keep an open mind though Ej. Good luck fishing deep beds, your gonna have to put it right in front of them and smack them in the nose with it. Just a suggestion if that ain't working for ya, head up Anna and fish up toward Christopher Run, and places farther north, I would look for a duck blind where the old river splits and start there, be careful the water gets shallow and stays shallow in a hurry when you get close to there.

Super User Nitrofreak Posted March 21, 2012 Super User Posted March 21, 2012 I'll try that. Usually I just toss it out, reel it in. Don't be afraid of throwing some reds and browns on those spinners either buddy !!! Quote
endless Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 Just back from fishing Bowies pond. The water was 65 to 64 degrees. With the perfect cloudy day I thought I would give the buzzbait a try. I landed a small pickerel and lost a 2lb bass the boat. I also landed a small bass on wacky. The lilies are coming in nice at Bowie so I even tried some frogs just couldn't seem to land any. They was hitting the frog just none hooked. I have to repair my Spro since I think a pickerel or bowfin did hit. It has a cut in the frog. How can you repair this? Just super glue? Quote
Super User Nitrofreak Posted March 21, 2012 Super User Posted March 21, 2012 Ok Endless I saved my 1000th post just for you !!! As far as repairing your spro, super glue will do the trick, just let it air for a couple of days so the smell goes away. Now you say you are missing them on the spro, or missing them with all of your frogs? Are the fish too small or are you just getting excited and not waiting for the rod to load up? Or are they missing the frog all together? Quote
endless Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 It's I'm not even sure I'm doing the let them take it then set but nothing there, lol. Some are miss like my Dep's frog which acts like a buzzbait. i guess it's just one of those days. Thanks for saving your post and congrats on the 1,000 mark!! I got two spros I need to repair. My leopard spro got ripped last year. Quote
OneFisher85 Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Pulled these out of SML today on a KVD 1.5 Squarebill Blackback Chartreuse... Yeah... they still be a-swimmin in the lake. Smallie went about 5lbs. Didn't weigh the baby striper. where did you catch this small mouth? I was out there last weekend, but had no luck with the sexy shad 1.5. Did you catch any more on it? Quote
Zoff Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 where did you catch this small mouth? I was out there last weekend, but had no luck with the sexy shad 1.5. Did you catch any more on it? Caught both of them at Lucky Island on the south side of the south island. Casting right on the "line" where the drop off is and running it parallel to the shore. Caught a few more but not of that size. All on the 1.5 Chart. Black Back. Quote
