BassMaster#1 Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 I've been meaning to post this the last few days, but just got to it. I had the day off on tuesday and decided to do a 6mile float on the huzzah leaving the resort. It turned out to be a great day with me cathing 30 and lossing about 5 more..3 goggle eye, 4 spot and 22 small mouth. Most of the fish was in the 10 to 12 inch range, but did land a 2.1lb, 17" small mouth. Didn't have any one there to take a pic with me in it so here is one with the ruler on the fish. Only saw two fish on beds and lots of spotted bass and spawnning gar. Almost all of them were got in or near brush. They were really aggresive...I would catch one and there would often be 1 to 2 followers. Can't wait to get back out there.
Members Phil's Flies Posted May 11, 2012 Members Posted May 11, 2012 very nice fish! I've heard good things about the Huzzah but haven't had the chance to fish it yet... plan on it next year. Again great fish.
Mark Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 A colleague floated Huzzah last weekend. He didn't fish but commented on all the fish he saw, including lots of big gar and big small mouth. He also said he saw the most snakes he has ever seen on a float trip including some water moccasins.
Smalliebigs Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 Awsome!!!! and it looks like that sow has already dropped her eggs for sure which is really awsome........shes a skinny hungry girl
BassMaster#1 Posted May 11, 2012 Author Posted May 11, 2012 Yeah I think that one did drop it's eggs..the belly wasn't that big at all. And I can confirm that there were a lot of snakes crusing around the stream. Must be their spawning season too.
Members creekin bassnerd Posted May 11, 2012 Members Posted May 11, 2012 I've been seeing more snakes on the rivers this year then I can ever remember. Do you think there are more this year because we had such a mild winter?
