Arrongance Smallmouth Winner
Bassturds and I went to new spot that we haven't fish before. We was reading from several posts on MAFF that place look so promise for big fish. I mean, smallmouth, not largemouth.
Before I can begin the story,
We was using canoe to fish every inch of this lake. We fished at dropoff, islands, and mostly at 4-8 feet depth.
Anyway, on my first cast, I was able to hooked into 5-6 pounds largemouth bass but hook pulled out when bass jumped out of water. Then, I told Bassturds that I cracked pond's code for the way of fishing style to be used in this lake. He looked at me, said, hell, no way. Then next ten cast, I processed losing several of nice size smallies on same fashion. The big headshakes when they jump out of water. It's game over. Bassturds was angry because he couldn't get any bites when I was consist get 4-5 bites on every cast. He kept changing different lures that his tackle bag has offer. I still using one lure for all day. It has proven hot lure for me. He decided to use same lure as I used but different colors and couldn't buy a bite. He decided to use shiners that we bought in case if we seen some big bass swim in our sight. We want that bragging rights! I was quickly connected my big fish of day. 2.5 pounds smally. Then lost several other bigger smallies than 2.5 pounds. Oh well, that happens. Anyway, we moved across the lake to fish at cove due to winds. On bassturds' first cast with shiner, boom, his personal best smally and tournament winner too! 2.8 pounds smally. After that, he was able to hooked up other two largemouth, sunfish, and yellow perch meanwhile I had 25 basses, 1 pikerel, and 1 white perch. But I had laterally over 300 bites on this day! no kidding at all. Just couldn't capitalize it all.
