    Default Hardbaits = Bass


    Only had an hour and half this morning so, I grabbed my 4’6” Daiwa Trout XUL paired up with a Shimano Nasci 500 reel .
    Using spoons, spinners , and small crankbaits , the little bass wanted to play and that was ok with me .
    I did hookup with a nice bluegill within the first ten minutes of casting, but it was close to the bank and it came unhooked . .

    Nice fish. I got to look at some water today. I’m about to go salty.

    My brother and I used to visit the Ga coast about two or three times a year, some years more .
    I miss those days of trying to time our trips to coincide with the tides . Sometimes we’d get a chance to go and just go .
    I fished light action spinning with 6# line and a 1000 reel for spotted sea trout , flounder , and sometimes a red or two .
    Fun times .
    Good luck !

    A misty overcast morning at the Town pond .
    The fish are going to tear it up .
    So , I thought.
    Took a couple of 6’ St Croix rods today , my Avid Panfish ULF and my Premier ULF .
    Reel were Daiwa , both 1000’s , one a Legalis LT 1000d , the other , a new acquisition , a Fuego LT 1000d .
    I’ve liked all of my 1000 LT Daiwa reels so far , but with the Fuego LT, I might be in love . .
    It is unbelievably smooth and both paired up perfectly with the six footers .
    Six foot may be the best overall rod length. It seems to do fish all lures from soft plastics to hard baits well .
    Oh yeah , the catch .
    I caught one bass on a 2.5g silver spoon with a forked piece of of a plastic bait I found in the grass where somebody threw it away .
    It worked ! My biggest bass as of late . Made my morning !
    I threw spoons , spinners and plastics . Even tried float and fly with one of my 1/80 hand tied jigs . But it going got me a couple of tail nippers .

    Nice one! Hardly ever fish spoons and spinners anymore without some sort of trailer. That's another good reason to switch to single hooks.
