Thread: Bass/panfish trip

Got out later than normal since it was cold and windy. Had two spots I hadn't fished this year and were close to each other. Started out fishing below a spillway hoping for a hybrid striper or bass and hooked a big bass on first cast that threw my 3/16 Herring underspin back at me on the jump. Wish I could have gotten a picture of that. Fished spot for an hour and caught three nice bass and a gar. Biggest bass was a 20" Largemouth that weighed 4.02, others were Kentucky's. Went to a small lake that has some Redear and gills and had a blast with the ultralight fishing a 1/48 chub tied with duck feathers on a #12 hook. Lot's of gills, redear and gill/crackers in the 6-8" range. Sorry, no pics of the sunfish but plan on going back today and will take some pics. Hard to stop for pics when they are biting well.
