banger Posted August 3, 2007 Report Posted August 3, 2007 Went out to the pond today, and hooked into my fish.Started @ 5:15 am on the water, and by 7am had landed 6 not to bad Pike.All around the 28 inch mark.( not worth of a pic, so I did'nt take the time to snap any shots of the Pike. As the day heated up and the sun started to cook us.I changed my set up from the old jonhson silver minon with a big green grub.To the big lizard.This is when the Bass, started to turn on.They were not hitting the soft plastic.But rather just sucking it in, and sitting with it.The only way to tell I had something on was to just set the hook when it felt weird or felt like nothing.And that kinda bite was the way it was for the day.Just a suck & sit with it, kinda bite.But I did pretty good, and only missed 3 or 4 bass.And had 5 clean cut off's from some toothy criters. Here's some pic;s of the Bass I nailed.All were released, they are still ready for me next time I go. Total for the day. Banger. 6 pike around 28 to 29 inches. ( no pic's for hammerhandles) And 5 NICE! Bass. I did not tape measure any of the Bass, and I don't have a scale any more. I would have to guesstimate them at around 3 to 4 pound for the average. Here's my shot's. Sorry for the blurry pic's my Cam sucks. Enjoy.

banger Posted August 4, 2007 Author Report Posted August 4, 2007 Thanks for the welcome. Just anothe pic. He's a fatty. Bad view.He's trying to smack my face with his tail at that moment. The sun was killer, I look as red as a lobster. Gonna have to go into the saftey kit, for some aid.
banger Posted August 4, 2007 Author Report Posted August 4, 2007 Eee doggies, those are some respectable Bass!C'mon back now! Thanks. Just for size compairing. I'm 5' 11" 220lbs. So far from small. They look kinda small next to my buda belly. Wish I had taped & weigh'd them. I tend to be close or under on my guesstimating. The pic of this one. kinda shows it's bulge. ( only 5 Bass, but lots of pic;s with releases & diff views)
Guest Johnny Bass Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 Nice. Sounds like the fish really liked the brand of lizards you were using!
Roy Posted August 4, 2007 Report Posted August 4, 2007 Welcome to the board, Banger. Really nice fish and a great day out for you.
banger Posted August 4, 2007 Author Report Posted August 4, 2007 Nice. Sounds like the fish really liked the brand of lizards you were using! Maybe they have cheap taste then. LOL cause it was the lizard that comes in the Wally mart kit. ( I think it's the 125pc.Rattlesnake kit, for around 15 bucks) I wa planning on picking up some big ass lizards, from another brand. Cause I'am alomost out of Lizards now.
