Mike Pike Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 I decided to hit a small conservation area lake this morning about an hour or so from the Hammer. The rain was really coming down at dawn so I had to wait it out for a bit before I could venture out of my vehicle. Once the rain slowed, I threw on the waders and started crawling around the shoreline in search of largemouth. Casting a rat through the lilly pads brought up nothing. The weeds had really grown quickly with our early summer so I reached for my trusty floating Rapala, which I could work slowly over top of the weeds and through the weed troughs. Bang! This ol' girl hits. She measured 17-inches and just about swallowed my lure, but it was easy to remove the hooks and send her on her way. After dodging more rain and emptying my tackle vest, I couldn't coax another bass to come out and play. Sure beats working though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
