Report 8/1

[ollie]

Just a quick report from yesterday. Buzz and I got on the water a little later than normal due to the expected rain in the forecast, but we were fishing by 8 for sure. Buzz started out quick with a couple on top water and I had one blow up as well, but nothing to hand. The fishing was really slow the first two hours of the morning and I thought it would just be one of those days where we drink more beer than actually fish! lol That all changed about half way through the float. I finally landed one in the yak and it was a chunky 12" largemouth. Then I had another one on right away, but it threw the lure out and that was it for me for a while. Buzz caught a couple more though and the bite started to pick up. We stuck with throwing top water because by God they finally were hungry and were hitting the bait all the time now!  Buzz lost a good one that threw the lure as well. I caught about a dozen or so and I know Buzz caught more. The one thing we both noticed though, was just how many times we had one on and it would throw the lure. Those darn treble hooks will catch everything else like trees, root wads, moss, clothes and anything else imaginable, but sometimes they just won't stick in a Bass's mouth!🤨 It turned out to be one of the better outings we have had in sometime. We slowed down our float at the end and were still getting hook ups and blow ups well after 2 in the afternoon. It was one of those days were you could truly say you left the fish biting.

I don't even know how many fish I caught ,but I jumped off at least 3 really nice fish. Fun day.
