Got out usual time, Jose let us in early, wasn’t too busy at Pigs, met our buddies Dave and Joe, headed to Hauser. Consistently good popper bite ALL day, even got one on a Rat, the biggest was 4lb on a frog! Braided line really got it done, did lose some big fish on barbless hook, but overall ...

45 degrees at 4am brr
Met up with Chuck and Dave at launch
Motored the Scadden to hauser, blue bird skies, wind came up mid morning
A few on the popper first thing but majority of my fish today was on 4 inch fluke, 10 inch black/blue power worm (El Salto Special) and black lizard working back out ...

Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to trying out the top water bite tomorrow.

Nice report bro looks like topwater should be picking up a lot more this month. That last picture is asking for a snake to be thrown

Googan bait

Nice report bro looks like topwater should be picking up a lot more this month. That last picture is asking for a snake to be thrown 😆

I know, a snake would be great. I had fun with the crazy crawler. I have a megabass I-wing, but I didn't have it with me. Last week, Chuck was throwing a rat ...

Is the first cast fish jinx real? Followed by a second cast fish? Maybe it is a jinx as a few minutes later a fatty bit the senko, got air so we could see the prize, then proceeded to dive straight under the boat and break off a 12lb fluoro leader. And to top that off, while I was nursing that wound ...

Nice report brotha.... topwater is always a blast i have a couple rats that are gonna get chewed on this weekend

Yes that fog was insane! I was more fearful about boaters not having lights. I stuck around main lake until sunlight, found new areas otherwise I would never fished. Caught a nice 3.5 on the new crawler.

I think the tail of the swimbait is in the belly

I was surprised to get a boat ticket since I logged in from work to do it...don't tell my boss...but I did so day before Fathers day I went (no, not with my kids they don't fish much), but with my buddy Chris. Started in the fog...just a bit but it was chilly. I guess we are late starters since we ...

OK, take two!

After just doing a full write up of the day and everything the website logged me out and I have to do it again. But that’s OK because it was such a fun day. I don’t mind telling the story again. After ...

Hey Dave never brought beers on my boat 🤔

Great day out there Chris! Your whopper plopper retrieve caught my eye…are you actually pausing just an hair and letting it sink some or is that my imagination? I’ve always used a constant fairly quick retrieve like a buzzbait so it always stays on top of ...

Hey that’s not good! Now he has to share with everyone! I think we learned that in elementary school. But yes, you’re right that’s exactly what I was doing. Like I said I’ve never actually fished with the bait before or even seen anyone fish with it. I heard that they were good so I picked up a ...

Great day on the water with you. Thanks for the tutorial on jigs. I was so excited with that fish until he clearly knew what he was working with and wrapped me around a tree. I'm going to practice a bit more.

John, apologies. I will definitely fix that on our next trip. I actually bought a new ...

A delicious part of this nutritious breakfast!

Great job! Thanks for the report. It’s nice when they are hitting on everything!

Ended getting a few to eat the frog in the back
Wolfpack showed up mid lake and were eating small 2.5 inch swimbait

Nice report brotha those bluegills really put up a solid 7 second fight ....
