ricardo Posted August 12, 2012 Report Posted August 12, 2012 So after a while of looking and searching I found a fishing hole that isn't too popular. I've been there a few time with my son (3 years old) and few on my own and have yet to get skunked. I use to never catching anything over 8-10" long. But today the rain brought me luck. I set up mine and my son's lines and the bobber bounces and gone. I start reeling it in and wow what a fight! I reel the sucker in and its a 3 pound bass. Cast out again and caught few little rainbows. I start to lose the hype from the big bass and was waiting on my next little trout and my line starts running again. Another big bass. I ended the day with 4 largies, a rock bass and 6 or so little trout. All in all a great day fishing and the boy was happy as could be.

largemouthtrout Posted August 12, 2012 Report Posted August 12, 2012 Good to hear . I think the rain did a bit of good here too . I have been having a pretty dry summer as far as fish go . 3 days of steady light rain did a lot of good . On the flip side though , the fish aren't were i usually catch them this year . Places where i usually catch bass around 2 pounds , i,m catching nothing but chubbies . Today i caught about 20 chubs and about 15 smallmouth ... BUT ... the bass were not 2 lbs ... they were 2 inches . I had to stop myself from fishing any more . I didn,t want to hurt that many small fish . Pretty bad when the biggest fish i caught was a chub .. ha ha .. ( well , its still better than sitting at home )
ricardo Posted August 12, 2012 Author Report Posted August 12, 2012 Catching anything is nice but you always have to a great day every once and a while. The spot I was at doesn't usually produce any big bass but it suprised me today. I didn't want to leave.
