Fishing Korea & Tennessee

Someone asked me if I had stopped fishing and the answer is no, I haven’t.  It’s just been incredibly tough out there lately.  In between the rainy spells, windy days and stained water conditions, I’ve also had to put up with carp muttons being camped out in the spots I like to fish, complete with their arrays of 10 or more poles, spread out all over the place.  To top it all off, it’s been dink city out there the last few weeks.

Believe it or not, these two that I caught this morning (on black, 4-inch Senkos) are probably the biggest bass I’ve landed lately.  I’ve been going out every chance I have, but with the weather and fishing conditions being less than favorable, and the bass not being in a biting mood, I’ve been spending a lot of time practicing with my various baitcasters – to the point where it feels like I’m getting the dreaded fishing elbow in my right arm.  The good news is that the weather has been absolutely gorgeous the last few days; fall is in the air and hopefully, the bass will start returning to the shallows to feed in the near future.  I’ll be waiting for them.
