James 5-31-23


Recommended Posts

Launched in Flat creek, WT 76 seemed pretty dead in there so we went up the James a bit. Stopped and fish a brush pile and the whole pocked just started boiling. The bass had us surrounded so we sat there for about 2 hours and never quit catching them. One of those in the right place at the right time. I dont think it would have mattered what you through at them they would eat it. When they weren't chasing shad on the surface I would throw a jerker and catch them that way too.  We left them biting. Little man was tired of catching them. Multiple times we were both hooked up, Those two he was holding we caught at the same time, they werent in the live well for a hero pic.   All Largemouth and they were fat

That’s what keeps those kids wanting to come back.  Good for you guys.  About those fat bellies,  do you think full of groceries or not fully spawned yet?

I gotta think they are just shad in those bellies  the graph was showing more shad than ive ever seen anywhere, i got close to the bank and you could see them. The bass were pushing the shad up on the dry land.  Pretty fun to watch.  Small shad 1.5-2" tops.

And the older I get the better they used to be.......🤔
