Some Days They Want Big,

And some days, they want small.

I started out with the Zoom Ol’ Monster worms again this morning but the bass didn’t want anything to do with them so I put on a 5”, black Zoom U-tail worm, weightless and started fishing that.  One thing I found out right away is that with a worm that size, you’ll catch dinks.  And I caught 9 or 10 out there this morning and some of the dinks I caught made the fish I’ve been calling dinks in other posts look like Moby Dick.  Seriously, I caught 2 or 3 that weren’t more than 3 inches long.  Fortunately, I also caught the 3 above, which made it a pretty good morning all around.  Now if I could just get some decent sunrises again!

    Well, now you know what is attracting those bigger ones to the area – 3″ long bass sammiches for breakfast! :)

    Lots of fry swimming around near shore, and also quite a few small bass hiding right up against the bank, among the rocks. As I walk along the shore, I can see them scoot out. It just cracks me up, a 3-inch bass attacking a 5-inch worm. One of them completely swallowed the worm. I should have taken a picture of that.

    You’ve got your own little ecological study going on right there at the PBA area Nomad. :)

    Time to throw some baby bass colored lures ;-)

    Good catches yet again Nomad. Now let me head over to your “It’s Friday” post :grin:

    Hmmm, I do have both 4 and 5 inch baby bass-colored Senkos :idea:

    I would suggest a baby bass crankbait or lipless crankbait, but not in that river, lol.

    Not unless fishing from a boat. From shore, one cast and you’d be back to worms :)
