merc1997 Bo Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 finally got a chance to get out for a bit and fished in the eagle rock area. fished some main lake without results, and i really do not know if the bass were not there or was not throwing what it took to get a bite. when we did get to catching them, it was off the main lake on channel banks, and ended up catching them on a 1/4 Nujig with a beaver type bait. most bites were 8 to 15 ft. deep. made me think there might have been a bite on the main lake too if i had been dialed in on lure and presentation. ended up with 7 keeps, and lots of shorts. of the 7 keeps, there was a 4 1/2, and two 3 1/2's. one of the 3 1/2's was a brownie, and i would bet it was one that leonard and i transplanted from the dam area. sure a good sign than maybe some day, we might be able to have a few of the brown critters on the upper end. we quit a little after 1 am. would have liked to have stayed, but got lots of other things to get done today. the trip sure goes to show that you need to keep an open mind on what to throw, and keep changing presentations and speed. in other words, throw what the fish want, not what you want to throw. bo Hammer time 1
Codywskeeter1521 Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Thank you for your report. Very good points. Sometimes I get caught up in throwing what I think they should bite and what I want to throw not what they want to bite. Thanks cody

fishingaddiction Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Very nice screen shot poop. I bet that was a white bass catching frenzy! Bo: Thanks for the report, good job figuring them out for location and presentation. Born to Fish. Forced to Work.
Quillback Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Yep, thanks for the report Bo. I was wondering how the night fishing was. Makes me think that right now night is the time to be out there.
dtrs5kprs Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 Much appreciated. Have been thinking about taking the boy out to chase some in the dark, give the night Ned a test versus a jig and a single spin.

Have been thinking about taking the boy out to chase some in the dark, give the night Ned a test versus a jig and a single spin. i am thinking it would work very well since it seems they are wanting a smaller slower bait. bo
