In lieu of the recent Mardi Gras murders, I opted out of going to parades and spent some time on the water. As I began unloading the boat, I immediately realized that I remembered to grab the fish finder battery, but forgot the faceplate. So much for having a true water depth for the day. I ended up combat launching so the paddle wouldn't be as long as if I had launched from Sweetwater. The goal was to get on the north side of Lake Robin, which was successful. I didn't see any fish action until the afternoon. Found some grass patches in about 3-4 feet of water and was able to pull 7 bass out of them. The red was caught on a mud flat that I could see them tailing while I was fishing for the bass. Ill be changing my tactics up for next week to see if I can pull a larger bass from a bed.
This little guy must have been sick. He didn't fly away with all the others, but when I splashed my hand in the water he came to me. He allowed me to pick him up and pet him for a minute or 2.
Possibly my biggest bass to date. I hope to get one over 10 lbs this year, but that is a high goal.
3 casts, 3 bass
Id throw my Seein' Spots over these grass pads and try to pull the bass from them.
The only red I was able to catch. Most of the reds that I was able to see, had about an inch or so of their tail sticking completely out of the water.
