Huh?

I’ve said it before, I’m saying it now and I’m fairly certain I’ll say it again; I cannot figure these fish out.  For the last week, they’ve been ignoring my Senkos for the most part, and have wanted nothing but spinnerbaits.  This morning, I couldn’t get a bite on a spinnerbait to save my life.

Go figure, I caught five bass, all on 5-inch Senkos – the above were the only ones worth taking a pic of though, the rest were true dinks.  The one in the 2nd pic grabbed my worm and immediately went between some rocks.  I couldn’t reel it in, but could feel the fish tugging.  I thought it was a decent fish, so I sat there for 20 minutes, waiting for the fish to swim out of the rocks, which it finally did, right before my hands froze solid.  I’m glad I had braid because those rocks would have cut mono or fluoro for sure.  Blah, I checked the weather and it’s supposed to go down to freezing or colder next week, so my my Early Morning Bass trips are numbered smile_sad.

    That’s what keeps this sport interesting, you never know what the fish are going to do next.

    You guys are both being too modest. If you had the money and the resources I bet either one of ya could hang with the big boys….

    Sounds like someone is spraying on my back and telling me it is raining. I haven’t heard so many of guys like you being humble since….. well I don’t when.

    Wilsong,

    Uh huh, when you say only dinks, I say it was a great day, dude. Was on business in Hawaii last couple of weeks and on 4 inshore bottom fishing trips only caught 10 fish, only one bigger than your dinks and I was a very happy camper.

    Ah, nice, but very rare. Normal business trips for me are Tongduchon 5 times a year or the occasional trip to Rodriguez range complex. But it was good.

    Heh, all I get is a rare trip to Suwon AB :smile:
