Day after Thanksgiving & there is snow on the ground. It was on & off snowing & sleeting (never knew what that was till we moved here from So Calif) when I went out fishing. Yes, that's snow on the ground, it was nasty weather.
Schools of shad all over the place, saw a few bass jumping out of the water chasing the shad, so I brought out the Bagley shad lure. Ran inside the shad & a bass was inside waiting for an easy meal....& here comes my lure....WHAM! Not the biggest, but w/ the way the weather was, I'll take anything that bites my lures. Last week though the bass were in the 3-4 lb range & the weather was in the high 40's.
Switched to a Bagley rattle trap style lure & slow reeled in. Halfway through & I feel tension....FISH ON! This is one great looking lure & fooled the bass too!
Third bass was on a Storm Kickin' Shad. This lure swims just like a shad & I caught 5 bass...how cool is that!!!????
I ended up w/ 8 bass so it's been a pretty fun fall so far. Winter is right around the corner & it'll drop down to the teens & below. Folks around here ice fish....why????
