ironstone74 Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 I got out tonight for just over an hour and no luck on leeches or Mepps Aglia so I switched to old faithful, the Hoola Popper. I worked downstream to where I exit the river and after one swipe at it this guy head butted my lure. Pretty close to the eyes, but no damage. Healthy fish, good scrapper considering the hook location. The camera had been a jinx for me lately so I was glad to land this guy and post up some pics Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diggyj Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Sweet looking bass, good job. Will have to try the Hula Popper next time out. Tried the Jitterbug this weekend with some good results. Dirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
