Those redears have a bad attitude! They will attack fish way bigger than themselves this time of year! We need the bigger bass to move up now!

I knew it was going to be a special day, first cast was bit, then a hen mallard jumped up on the deck and stayed with me about 45 minutes.,.
We had a long talk about duck hunting I told her to stay off that Colorado river and salton sea next fall. And the guys on Noffinger rd were sky busters. I ...

Good job, I knew you'd get some with the overcast weather! If that was the short version of your story, I'm terrified to know the long version....hahahaha!

Great report, nice to hear topwater action is happening. I cannot wait until my whopper plopper is back in business.

Good Stuff, love the Sammy. You made me laugh with the worm comment=-D
Thanks for the post!

thats some good fishin....

This year has been a bit slower with the bass bite from shore. I get into a decent fish here and there, but the bite has been very slow. The minute you skip a week you may miss out.

Well for the first few hours it seemed like bad business as usual at the old lake. Just cold and rainy! The game plan was to throw a buzz bait through flooded brush. If that failed, a spinnerbait through flooded brush. I just knew they had to be in flooded brush! Well, if they were, they were not ...

Very nice! I was getting concerned last week that spring was never going to happen on D.K.! I think when summer gets here, they'll be in the brush...if the City doesn't take all the water out first! I never thought of taking a photo while laying on my side!!!

I have very good (Luck) fishing this method at Sutherland during high water.
It is basically a heavy drop shot, I make my weights 3/4 oz from a piece of lead from a 1lb spool of hollow lead. (Main use is river drifting for salmon) cut to length and insert a swivel put in vise to crimp. Rebar hook 5 ...

When back again same pattern. Fishing was very slow. Started off by catching a carp yay!
Carp for me is usually some bad luck so I moved to a different spot as far away as I could get from any visible carp action.

Still very slow as far as the bass action was concerned but the patience paid off and ...

The smile on your son’s pic tells it all.
Tight lines always and thanks for sharing.

@VinnyBass we both enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you again and tight lines!

Be careful taking advice from Vinnybass...before you know it, you'll be catching 6lbers!

Dropshot hint: hangs up less in the rocks and brush!

Those damn bass stole all my water!

I’ll start off showing some fish I caught couple days ago so you guys can remember me by.

Took the whaler out for a spin around the lake and found a very steady bite Stopped counting around 15 fished for 2 1/2 -3 hours. Nothing special just old school worming

It took San V an extra month to get going, but it's on now! What a difference 2 weeks makes...got there at sunrise 2 weeks ago, 6 boats..today at sunrise, more like 30! First cast, lost a 6lber in a bush..bad omen, nope! I got into a solid pattern and didn't move more than 100' for the next 5 hours ...

Now that's the mcfish report we all know and love. Now that's a funny meme from the vinman!

And you still didn’t throw the hudd?! Oh Vinny Vinny Vinny
