It’s Fall

It amazes me to no end that after all these years of fishing for bass, how little I actually know about these fish.  This morning when I got to the river, I shone my flashlight into the water and saw that it was quite stained so I thought, “there’s no way the bass are going to be able to see a Senko, today is a perfect day for spinnerbaits and chatterbaits.”  Ha!  Wrong answer, thank you for playing!

Not a single hit on spinnerbaits or chatterbaits, but I did catch five on Senkos – the above two were the biggest of the bunch.  I really wanted to measure/weigh the one on the right because that was a decent fish but it was gut-hooked and it took me a while to remove the hook so I wanted to get the fish back into the water as quick as possible.  So the moral of this story is; if you want to know anything about bass fishing or bass behavior, don’t ask me – instead, get a subscription to Bass Master magazine. smile_teeth
