Wahoooo Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 I went out to my home lake with the goal of catching my first Lunker(wood/8"/trout) and large glide bait bass. So I pull up to a nice looking area and start to fish the Lunker. In the first few cast I already have followers. Seeing they have some intrest in the bait really gives me high hopes I'm going to get a bite. About 10 minutes later I'm watching the bait do its thing thinking about how good it looks when all of the sudden a bass goes air jaws on the Lunker. I wait a few seconds and set the hook. After a short fight I land a nice 3 lb bass. I take a few pics and let her go. I fish the Lunker for about another hour but only had followers. At this point the wind has picked up so I pick up the glide bait and start to fish it over the top of a grass bed. I right away have fish following it but could not get them to bite. After two hours I make a move to an area with a little more color to the water. I'm fishing the area for about 15 min when I make a cast up into about 2 feet of water. I get about one crank in before I have a bass crush my bait. I'm thinking it's a nicer size fish because of the way its fighting and how hard it hit. Well when I finally land the fish and get a look at it I was kind of shocked because it was like Lindsay Lohan skinny and messed up. I take a few pics and let her go to try and put some weight on. I fished for a few more hours without anymore bites just more followers before calling it a day. I can't to get back out there to see if I can get some more fish on those baits.

Wahoooo Posted September 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 It's a Tyler lure ... I like it b/c they run about $35 for the 8 inch and he stands behind his stuff. They have a good action to them also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wahoooo Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Thnx guys!!!! I have been putting in some more time since I caught those fish. I started to fish the 11" version of the glide bait and the other day I had a pair of bass come up and take a look at the bait. The smaller of the two looked to be in that 7-8 lb range but the other one was a JUMBO.... It looked to be close in size to the 14lber I found floating a few months back that I could not save... She was very wide across the back and long... That fish got my heart racing when she nosed up to the bait before swimming off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
