I fished from 9 to 3 today and caught between 40 and 50. Caught at least 20 on the whopper plopper fishing in the White River channel over the 25 foot depth. Caught several on a jigging spoon when they weren't hitting topwater. After reading about a shakey head bite from a earlier post, I started in a cove and caught another 10 or so with the shakey head and cotton candy trick worm in as shallow as 6 ft. to 20ft. Caught a few on a war eagle spinner, rock crawler and pb&j ned. It was one of those days the topwater bite lasted all day. Water temps 77 to 78 cloudy and dead calm.

After I saw it I had to get proof otherwise it would have been another fish story. If it would have been a bass I would have never taken a picture of it in the water

I had a spoon on a rod with 10lb line on it, my net was in my rod box, the handle to my net had a slight crack and a bend in it. The handle broke in half lifting it resulting in me putting my hand in its mouth to get it in the boat. Battery was dead in my scale to weigh it. That's why it deserved to be let go. After losing at least 5 other big ones over the years that i never saw I was pretty happy to boat this one.

Went bass fishing and caught this guy on a jigging spoon in 20 fow. Stick measures 22 inches and it went another 8 to 10 inches past that. I'm guessing somewhere around 20lbs. because when I lifted it to release it to live another day it was heavy. Water temps around 79. I caught 8 bass on a spinner and the spoon with 3 keepers. The second pic i took was just in case I didn't get it to the boat.

I'm pretty sure I heard you yelling for joy yesterday when you caught those. I won't mention where but you yelled more than once. It was around 4 or 4:30.

Book is on its way to a new owner.

If anyone's interested in this paperback for sale. I'll charge you what i have in it. Great reading. Glad to pass it along. pm me.

Two of us caught 14 today with 5 keepers from 9 to 3 between eagle rock and big m. Nothing over 16 inches. We caught them on the booyah multi blade spinner, rage blade blaster and a plastic worm . Most fish were shallow and on wind blown banks.

I'll add a couple pics when i figure this out.

We saved this kentucky floating on the surface with the oversized shad in his mouth. He swam off hopefully to learn his lesson about eating something so big. Overall we caught 10 on a 7/8 war eagle spoon, drop shot, pbj ned and this nice keeper on a berkley cutter table rock color jerkbait. Beautiful day to be out 63 degrees 45 wt. Caught everything in 20 to 30ft of water on the edge of creek channels.

I caught two in in the white around pt.25 a few weeks ago.. One had 2 big eyes and the other had one big one and a normal one. I should have taken a pic.

Some of us can use this. Beverage type optional.
