kemper Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 (edited) I have a crazy idea...it spawned from the need to pin due to nervous twitch. Ill be back with a report later tonight, just know that the pin has been dusted off and crazy things are soon to happen. EDIT REPORT TIME Headed down to the local haunt, and found small mouth bass! Float worms just like I would for steel. What a BLAST on the pin! Big fish was almost 19" what a cool way to spend an hour...here are the pics and a cool one from last night at scugog Edited August 1, 2008 by kemper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tibbs Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Nice Job! That's a big smallie! How was the fight compared to a steelhead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kemper Posted August 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 With the big equiptment it was nothing compared to the power of a steelie, but it was really cool because it was so much easier to control the acrobatics with the extra power and movement in the big stick. Took quite a while to land the big one, much longer than it would with a regular rod and reel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe somebody finally listened when I posted a while back in another thread about floating for bass.... http://www.ofncommunity.com/forums/index.p...22216&st=20 We have been doing it with spinning equipment rigged "exactly" the same as for trout with worms or live leeches for a couple of years in rivers and the results are fantastic.

ccmtcanada Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 Great job Kemper. That spot you were at has produced smallies for Bly and I this year as well. Like Canuck said, live leeches worked very well for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
