Fishing Report 2-12

[The Tactician]

Didn't have enough time to head to Stockton or Table Rock on Saturday and HAD to do some fishing, so my buddy and I stopped by Springfield Lake. I saw a few pictures of some nice bass on here and decided to give it a try since we just catch and release everything anyway. We fished from below the darn on down as far as the ice and mud would let us. I actually had a blast. We fished about 3 hours for bass and caught 7 or 8 LM's with a few nice ones. I had a bunch of new lures that I wanted to get familiar with so we threw everything but the kitchen sink at 'em. Caught one on a red craw colored Bomber A. Caught 2 or 3 on various colors of the Storm soft swimbaits. Caught one on a Clown color X-Rap. Caught one on a little Rapala silver minnow floater. Got to watch a bald eagle for a little while and did ok.

I love that place for a quick fishing fix. Really I just love that section, caught some nice fish out of there. Thanks for the report.
