Steve,

I will definitely take you up on that.

Tex Mex, anytime you want to fish at that lake, let me know and I’ll come up and meet you there (any excuse to go there ). The summer time is a great time to fish that lake when it’s covered in weeds…..so long as you have some strong line.

Hunterdave, I bought a small inflatable boat for fishing tiny ponds and streams and it has floor that you put in and inflate. Mine also has 2 wooden boards that go over the inflatable floor and the seat attaches to one of the boards. You could stand up in it, but I feel more safer sitting down….Your right Rob, those things are quite fast with even a 30lb trolling motor.

Hunter, guys stand up in the ones I see out on the river all the time. In fact, I think some of them are made with only one “stand-up” fishing seat, and they scoot across the water pretty well with only a trolling motor.

Congrats on the wonderful weekend. I see the Koreans really like those inflatables. Do they have any kind of floor that allows them to stand? I saw them using them on a FTV a few days ago catching bass and they were standing in those little things.

Steve,

Those are some nice bass. I used to fished that lake before when I was in Pusan and it yielded some good sized bass. I see the lake is still producing. You are right on the weeds as during summer time, us non boaters could not fish that lake because of the vegetation covering it up. Man do I want to head back up there. I may do it in early Apr when I go vist Pusan before my trip to Japan.

Thanks guys.
Nomad, this is a very special lake and it holds some big girls, but it’s best to fish from a boat to get some good numbers of fish. In the summer it’s 95% covered with water plants (water chestnuts and hydrilla) and the topwater frog fishing is out of this world….all I’ll say is get some strong line and “hang-on”

I think this lake is only 2~3 hours South of you guys, you should give it a try sometime.

Way to go Steve! 45 bass over two days is excellent. To be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever caught that many in one month
