steverowbotham Posted July 27, 2007 Report Posted July 27, 2007 Well Wednesday I got into my truck at 4am to head to work, about 5 mins into the drive... there goes my tire... awesome. CAA comes, seals it, reinflates it, start up my truck, wont go into gear, goodbye tranny. Had it towed to my best friends house who is a mechanic, he fixes her up, replaces the fluid that was all gone, charges me for parts, no labour, gotta love it. Anyways, while he was getting his fix on (after his real day was done), my cousin towed my boat up to bass lake in orillia on his way to gravenhurst, so we only got 3 hours out before he came back toget us, but 3 hours is better than nothing especially when you catch over 20 bass in that time frame. I got more largies, my g/f got more smallies, thats how the dice roll. Nothing huge, but some solid 2 pounders My two biggest ... went about 12 pounds for 5 fish, nothing huge. One more cast.... slurp, then he felt my 3/0 gammy Got out to Simcoe today with a buddy. I hate Simcoe, but he loves it, figured I'd give in. Well I caught a few on a jerkbait, and he caught 2 on a tube. My biggest is on the right, his biggest is on the left ... I'm a loser today lol.
ranger520vx Posted July 27, 2007 Report Posted July 27, 2007 hey dude..looks like MY water. hahaha. Nice job.
setomonkey Posted July 27, 2007 Report Posted July 27, 2007 Nice pics. Bass Lake is a fun little lake if you don't have time to travel far from the GTA or if you've got a kayak or canoe. Mike
007 Posted July 27, 2007 Report Posted July 27, 2007 Wow! Another great report, great pics and some huge fish! I love the markings on some of the smallies. How big was your friend's largest smallmouth bass in the last pic? At least a 5lber surely? Just curious did you/he fish the tubes vertically on/near the bottom or higher up? How deep was the water there? Thanks for sharing. 007
tinbanger Posted July 27, 2007 Report Posted July 27, 2007 wow ..nice fish in the last pic Have yet to focus on SM this year ,,hope to change that today if the weather holds off. TB
ccmtcanada Posted July 27, 2007 Report Posted July 27, 2007 Way to go Steve! Great report and pics as usual. 20 fish in 3 hours is a great fishing outing by anyones standards!
steverowbotham Posted July 27, 2007 Author Report Posted July 27, 2007 simcoe smallies were up relatively shallow yesterday, likely due to the front that was coming through, normally at this time of year I drag tubes or throw jerkbaits in 12-22 feet of water, these fish were in about 8 feet, big one hit it on the drop.
misfish Posted July 27, 2007 Report Posted July 27, 2007 Steve nicely done by both. I found the oppisit on wednesday.I was in deeper water with the jerk bait and was missing and getting them.Today was the oppisit.Shallow for most of the day but nailed some in the deeper waters drop shot wacky style with Culpy senkos.
