Title: Got on the board
Post by: rivereddy on Mar 17, 2019, 07:20 PM

Went looking for trouts today on a local public lake.  Didn't find any or see any signs thereof.  I began tossing
a very small squirrel tail jig of my own design.  On my third cast a bass charged after it as I began to lift the
bait from the water.  The jig was 2" total length... the fish, not much bigger.  A few minutes later, and farther from shore, I felt a nice "Thump" and my ultralight bent double.  My first largemouth of the year was a light pound but a welcome catch.  A few minutes later, I caught its twin. Even though the water and air temps were both below 40 degrees these fish were fairly active.  It won't take much of a warm up to get things rolling.

fish on,
