    Default Hit the local water hole (more pix added)

    Lately I've been fishing with very little success. Started with my trusty senko and got nothing.so I decide to use a jig with a craw trailer and I finally got my first jig bass!!! I was stoked!!! Hit several hole but no more bites with the jigs...so I decided to toss a spinnerbait, never caught anything on a spinnerbait before but decided to give it a try. Boy was that the hot ticket!!! Fished for 4 hours and landed 19 bass from 1lb to 8 or 10lb bass (pix don't do justice)!! Today was an unbelievable day, the best day at the local water hole!!!
    Caught my first jig fish...awesome
    Caught my first spinnerbait bass....awesome
    Caught my first DD this year on a spinnerbait of all things!!!!
    Looks like the fish are keyed in on fast moving baits after the spawn. Here are some pictures!!!
    Enjoy!!!

    Beautiful fish dude, congrats!

    Dude, some of my most epic days came on blades. I've had days where I've broken several due to metal fatigue. That's a blade fish in my avatar. Excellent bait at the right time and place...

    The reason why I chose the blades was because I saw a fishing show and the pro said that the bass key in on fast moving baits after the spawn and he was right! Today the blades prove to be the right bait and I happen to be at the right place at the right time...I'm a huge fan of the spinnerbait now! It helps locate fish and the strike is awesome!!! I'll be using blades more often now! :)
    Glad you enjoyed the pix. I want to post the pic of the jig fish but it won't let me load the pix. If I can post more pictures i will.

    I have to say that the spinnerbait is by far my favorite bait...maybe I got lucky. I know the jig attracts big bass but the spinner allows me to cover lots of water...it's my fish finder, lol....man what a day!!! Wish I took my go pro :)

    After they finish spawning and recover a little they are real hungry and they go on the hunt for shad, gills or bugs(crawdads). Most lakes it's Shad because they spawn right after the LMB's. But pretty much anything that moves is fair game to an aggressive and hungry Bass...
