Fishing Rods

High at around 67 degrees with lots of cloud cover--almost no wind--3-4' water clarity.

Started throwing a Senko, then a spinnerbait both with no bites. Switched to my FFS cr/bait rig and right away, caught a nice 6 lber. One point of the rear treble was stuck inside her lower jaw. Good fight as it took me a few(?) minutes to put her in the boat.

Went to a C-rig, Senko, spinnerbait, swimbaits(2), and more cr/baits but that was the only bite I got today. Not a bad way to finish the year .

Decided not to start a new thread but I did catch a Fat Free Guppy Bass today, Jaunary 1, 2005. No bites on anything else I threw.





My HE70MC ( - - blocked - - ) thru again!

Another "goodun", aren't those heliums grand! It was a tough day over here as well. 3 dinks and a 1.5lber on a Mann's Stone jig. I threw cranks till my arm was tired, they just were not biting today. I think the heat wave has them all screwed up. Air temp 74 degrees, water temp 51 degrees. Grats again, both very nice fish.

In case those Images don't show:

3.5 lber

Same Bass


Thank you ez. Air temp was 74 and surface water was 64. I got a little tan with just shorts on. The shirt is on in the pics just to protect the innocents .
