This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Bass Lessons - 26JUN07

Post by Ladyfish »

Salmon asked if I was interested in checking out a spot of his and learning about bass fishing. I reminded him that the temp was going to be 34 without the humidex. We decided to go for it anyways. I just didn't know how far we had to lug the canoe before we finally hit the lake :cry:

We started off small with the crappies and learning how to "attempt" to hit the right spot with getting the only weeded area around :roll: And then I got to move up to the bass :D

With the highlight being my PB of 18.5 and 3.7 lbs YES!!!

Salmon found his way into some too

Later we gave the pike a run but they didn't want to co-operate as much.
We called it a day with this final 26" in the boat

Definitely was a hot one but a blast at the same time.

Thanks for the lessons Salmon :D

Hi Ladyfish,

Great story. I see you're located in the Kitchener area, where were you fishing? I am always looking for new spots to fish in the Grand River/Oxbow.

Thanks and fish hard!

Salmon,

No I haven't had the chance to try it yet. It definitely sounds nice. I will certainly give it a go some time over the course of the summer.

Thanks for the info....
