Remember This ????

 

IMG_0418.jpg

 

Yeah Thats my 5,6 lbs LMB And thats Where im Heading! :)

 

Camped In a PRIME large mouth bass location.......

 

Thats my idea of a fish'n trip.

 

As we all know. This year bass fishing is totally different.

 

you adapt..... or you dont catch nothing.

 

last year it was all about surface.

 

frogs, buzz, jitterbug and whatever........

 

But this year the weeds are gone.... they didnt grow in many of the lakes i fish.....

 

yeah there some..... but not thick like last year.

 

So the bass have moved.... That was my mission this week.

 

and let me tell you guys.... i did not fail. 8)

 

When a pro bass fisherman tells you.

 

i have a spot dude........ i pulls out nickel after nickel after nickel...

 

well this story has 3 of them.... 5.3 lbs , 5.6 lbs , 5.10 lbs and a seriouse 6.5 lbs

 

But lets start this one slow and easy! :D

 

Day 1.

 

Stephanie helped me pack last night.

The perfect start for a week to remember.

 

Me , My COUZ , mike and my brother jason.

 

were to camp on a island .... not any island....

 

PIG FREAKING FACTORY ISLAND. :lol:

 

We get there and start to set up.

Our home.

 

After setting up.

 

Fish time.

 

We start the week slow.

 

Mike with a nice bass....

 

IMG_0533.jpg

 

He's not used to the E.A.P. but dont worry he will learn quick.

 

The windy day makes it hard to locate the fish so we wait for the wind to die down...

 

we fished from 7pm to 9pm.

 

These were the two biggest we got that night.

Day 2

 

All primed up for the day of fish'n ahead of us.....

 

But the brutal 25 km/h winds had other plans.

 

Me and mike decide to go for a quick outting in the back bays.

 

nothing to prove in this bay. 1-2 lbs bass hitting here and there.

 

As we are comming back.

 

We spot a flipped canoe. :shock:

 

STORM to the scene...

 

they had there life jackets on THANK GOD!

 

flip the canoe and grip the two HUMANS aboard and to safety we go.

 

10 000 thanks later we head back to the island.

 

wait for the wind to die down....

 

sun had passed the horison.

 

Jason and I were up for the night bite this time.

 

Out of ALL the lures i have Jason sets up a Hula POPPER! :shock:
