jimmer Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 A buddy and I got out after work yesterday for two hours. We targeted bass, but wanted to make it easy and avoided any thick weed areas. I think the bass felt the same way! We probably boated 15-20 bass in those two hours. My buddy caught all his on a white twister with the largest topping 3 lbs. I stuck with senkos and flukes, but didn't catch as many as him. The bite died at about 7 pm, but we kept working the area and were about to go in. I figured one last cast and low and behold I had that one last bite. It turned out to be a 5 lb smallie (weighed on a digital scale), largest bass of the year for me. It was a nice way to finish off a great evening of fishing. I guess there is something to that fall feed bag story. Catch them while you can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After work fishing is the best. used to love heading out after a night shift with the pup from shore or in the boat. Headed out tomorrow for some bass and walleye, hoping we can get as many bass as you. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhioFisherman Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Nice fish! LOL @ weeds, I could almost bet that any bass I caught with that many weeds in the picture here in Ohio would not be a smallie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmer Posted September 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Ohio, my phone wouldn't take a picture, so I threw it in the live well and scooted into my dock. We caught two smallies in what would not be considered the usual smallie haunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
