Early Morning Bass, Part 20

Posted by  on 2 July 2008, 8:38 am

Last night, both KMA and USFK were calling for wind and rain today but when I woke up at 3:15 this morning, the weather looked good to me so I started the coffee and got myself ready to head out.  The wind had kicked up pretty good by the time I arrived at the river, but for once, the bass didn’t seem to mind.  I caught one on my second cast, and the bite was pretty steady after that.

I caught five and lost three, and all bites came on 5-inch, black Senkos today, fished slow – and I never moved from the spot I started out at.  Pretty amazing morning, for this time of year – and the second half of 2008 is taking up where the first half left off smile_regular

Some carp fishermen left all of their garbage behind for others to enjoy…

 

I didn’t have a bag with me, otherwise I would have cleaned this mess up…this is the last thing I want to see early in the morning :(

    By the way, how come you never make coffee when you fish with me? ;)

    I have 1 cup before I leave the house…I haven’t taken coffee out with me in a long time…

    BTW, I am now officially sold on that Trilene 100% line. Both the 8 and 6 pound have proven themselves to me.

    Well that’s certainly good news, especially considering that I just got six packs of it in yesterday. :)

    WTG Nomad!!

    I hate to see all the crap around the lakes, but it’s not always carp fishermen….I once watched to young bass fishermen (KID) open a lure rod/reel combo box, take out the combo and left the box on the floor, fished for a while and left leaving the box at the lake :twisted: :twisted:

    Nomad, is that Trilene 100% a flurocarbon ??

    I’ve seen plenty of plastic worm packs and other trash left behind by bass fishermen as well.

    Steve,

    Yes that Trilene 100% is fluorocarbon. As far as the trash…yes I have seen worm packets but nothing like the piles of garbage that the carp fishermen leave behind after one of their all-night stands. Anyway, I’m at war with the carp fishermen and this just gives me more justification for waking them up when I get there and they’re zonked out in their vehicles :lol:
