Chick 7/7 night fishing

[BassBullet]

The son of a friend of ours (Josh, he’s 14yrs.) and I went out last night. We put in at HBSP around 6:00p.m. and ran up to Sequohah. We caught several bass all around 2 pounds in 6 to 15ft of water. We caught them on a little of everything. Crankbait, spinnerbait, buzzbait, but most were caught on plastic on a jighead. I forgot my spotlight (left it on the charger) so just before dark we had to head back to HBSP area to fish. We caught several more on the main channel structure on jighead with a finesse worm and carolina rig finesse worm (Junebug color). From 9:30 until around 11:15 the bite got slow. We moved in on the flat next to the drop and then back out a little deeper, but couldn’t find them. We headed back to the ramp and stopped to fish a couple of underwater points, was just about to call it a night when we doubled (carolina rig) 2 fish on at the same time, just doesn‘t get any better than that. Both were decent fish a little over 2lbs (but Josh did note that his fish was the biggest). That got us pumped again. Fished another 45 minute. We caught a couple more and lost a couple. We caught over 20 fish, all bass, all LM except for 1 spot. Guys you better watch out for Josh, he is going to be a heck of a bass fisherman. He is already a crappie slayer.

Great to hear that you are still fishing BB. I hadn't seen you post in an age. Thanks for taking one of the up and coming conservationists of the area and giving him a lesson in what our great outdoors is all about. Again, good to hear from you out there.

Thanks Polo. Josh is very concerned about taking care of the fish, his is going to been an asset to bass fishing world.

As for the fishing reports, I haven't been fishing much since I got back from Texas, except for the CCF night tourney. I have the Women's City Golf Championship coming up the next 2 weeks. Teams championship next week and individual the week after that. I have been trying to knock the rust off of my golf game.

Glad to see someone was catching bass. My friend and I couldn,t buy a freakin fish latnight! We landed 2 in about 7 hours and they were small. We tried everything.emoScratch

fishinvol, check the maps, fish the steep drops in the creeks and river channel right next to the flow and the fish are stacked up there. You might have to try a few but you will get into them.

Thanks polo! Last weekened we ripped on the bass in harbour light marina,using plastic worms in about 10-15 foot of water.

Good report BassBullet. Glad you got to take a young'un fishing. I bet he had a great time too. Gonna have to get you one of the headlights for that bullet! I have a head light but still like to use the q-beam. It works so much better to find the bouys and see stuff floating with.
