BASSJUNKY...FEEDING MY ADDICTION 2008 (Updated 09/12/08 pg4 Quinte Bass)

I got out in the open water for the first time this year...looking for some slab crappies
My first cast landed in a tree so we were off to a good start
Cast #2 was a bit better as I hooked into a 4lb Pike.
He was a great fight on my BPS Crappie rod and 4lb crappie hi-vis line. I snapped a pic during the fight as I was sure I was not goign to land him
But I did, a quick plier release...gotta love those lil'squirt crappie tubes, they catch everything
The water was a bit cold still, no crappies to be seen, and that was the only bite I had in a little over two hours of fishing...but it felt great to get out with still snow on the banks

Way to go bassjunky.
That's a nice pike and a good to start your 2008 open water season.
It would have been a good fight on a lite action rod and line.

Well after my initial outing the fishi seemed to dissapear, until today that is...I had a great outing, had a hard time trying to keep my jog away from the largemouths, but still managed a small collection of crappies
The bass had moved into my crappie hole, and if it was open season or a tournament I would have had a great day. I sanpped a few pics of some of the largies, a couple over 3lbs and a few in the high two's, I tried to keep them all in the water but a couple I need the pliers on so I took the chance to snap a pic or two
here are the two bigger fish
I also got some great action shots
When I finally got into some crappies they were a decent size, one 12incher a pair of 10's and an 8incher
I also managed a nice 9inch gill
finally a pic of me with the crappies

thanx guys, with all this great weather I decided to make another run at the crappies again this morning. They are still not in huge schools, but with persistance you can get a nice little snack
I managed 8 crappies today, a broke out the portable live well, these actually work pretty good, for shore line fishing
the group of 8
the big boy was just a hair over 11 inches
I managed a few gills, pumpkins, sunfish as well...pretty nice colours
I also noticed this largie hidding under a floating bunch of slop, he didnt think I noticed him
then here I am just prior to turning these into my snack

And more gills and such

I got a few more in hours in today, the crappies have seemed to move out as the bite was off. I was chasing off Bass all morning, I did hook into this big boy, gave me a nice fight on my UL gear...
