I specifically targeted bass and tried my best to actually count without a clicker. This was harder than I thought it'd be, but i was solo, which helped me focus. Anyway, I caught 37 bass and had 8 come off. 6 of them came off in a row before I realized my hook point had rolled over. Doh!! I did catch what I am pretty sure is a spotted bass, which would be a first for me so far upstream. I'm no expert, but it had a rough patch on its tongue, and it sure looks like a spot with the jawline. Most came on a worm, biggest was a 19ish inch lm on Mitch F's shark tail worm. Also had 4 smallies bigger than 15 inches. I did catch a few on a finesse jig and a jerkbait and caught 1 on a top dollar. Yup, that's a spotted bass. And you're right, they haven't made it past the low water bridge at Leadwood access yet in any numbers. If you catch any more in that stretch, PLEASE kill them. top_dollar and Brian Jones 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Jones Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Happy that you had a good trip. Agonizing that you caught a spot...... That's the first one I've seen or heard of above Leadwood and my heart is aching..... I guess no part of the Big is pure anymore. snagged in outlet 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
top_dollar Posted July 23, 2023 Author Share Posted July 23, 2023 Yeah I have never caught one that far up either, but I guess it was only a matter of time. It was pretty disappointing though. I'll have to bring a fish cooler with me now and take any home I catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
