Vic Nightingale Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 Was out fishing yesterday and today. Could see fish in shallow water on beds. Picked off one male, but the larger females wanted nothing to do with what I was throwing. I used everything: jigs, creature baits, small worms, big worms, spinnerbaits, lizards. Nothing worked. And there were 7 really large females doing laps around this one bed. I had my bait right in the middle of the bed, and they surrounded it, but then froze up and did not move. Should I have approached it differently? Is there something else I should have thrown? As a side note, I was out fishing today and caught one that had the bloodiest tail fin I have ever seen. It was covered in blood. What would that have been from? Quote
Polarkraft05 Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 im no help for the fishing part of it, but i know the bloody tail fin was from the bass using its tail to make the bed. they fan the bed area to remove debris/pebbles which tear up the tail Quote
