'07 Bass Opener

Post by Swamp-Donkey »

Ahh, Bass season is finally here! Man was it chilly opening morning. It was like 6 degrees when I left my cottage at 4 am. I don't ever recall it ever being that cold for the opening of Bass season? It made for some tough fishing. Couldn't really get on a consistent pattern, got piles of smaller bass on just about everything I threw, the bigger fish that day however, just wern't co-operating. At the end of it all, I managed to muster up a few nice fish. They were all caught on spinnerbaits.

I was fishin solo this day and this was my first attempt at self-photograghy :lol: This fish I tried to "Zoom" in on a little :D
I gave up after that.

Had a great weekend and boated tons of Bass and they were all safely released. Can't wait until this weekend, We get three days to fish! :D

Cheers

Nice ones for sure. Good 'ol spinner baits. Somedays they're all you really need.

Hi ya Nodie, I got all my fish relatively shallow. The best one came off a chunk of floating bog that maybe only had a foot of water under it. I got to see it come right out and inhale my spinner-bait. Pretty cool!

Ya, I'd have to agree with ya Bobber. If I had to choose just one lure to fish with, it would definately be a spinner-bait.

Cheers
