Bass fishing today

[Garry2Rs]

They are telling me that the northeast US has snow now and expects more before the weekend...

If this includes you Southern Ontario guys, I'm sorry to hear about your weather.

It has cooled down a lot here in Yuma AZ. too, it was only about 75 here this afternoon.

I finally got out fishing with my friend from Dick, from BC. We went to Martineze Lake, which is a flooded backwater of the Colorado River.

Bass Club guys down here have been telling me that shallow running crankbaits are the thing to throw right now, so I picked up a few the other day.

We caught a few fish, 6 or 7 nothing over a pound and a half...and had a very good day on the water.

 

A stiff breeze in the morning turned into a heavy wind by noon, We tried to stay in the lea of islands etc, but we called it a day around 3PM.

I checked my new boat's speed with a GPS...I hit 55mph on the one open place that I knew was safe, and we were still gaining speed when I shut it down...I can't wait to get a nice long run on Jack's or Chandos where I can really wind it out...grin.
