jmftattoo Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Last decent fish I caught was October 31st. I was beyond discouraged and starting to doubt if I knew what i was doing lol. Me and my buddy went out today after a couple day warm front moved through Vegas. Brought my water temp up from 42 to 49. What a difference. First 5 minutes with this new savage gear 7" shine glide I picked up last night and I snagged this little chunk. Felt great to get back on a fish! Finally knocked that monkey off my back and this is my first 100% swimbait fish. So I was pretty stoked on that too. Not much to speak of size wise. But he was a fun fast fight. My friend got one off a whopper plopper just after this. Was a good quick little session out on the home lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmftattoo Posted February 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Their moving finally. Found a anchored giant Xmas tree today mid lake in about 8ft of water. Sent a deps 250 down first and almost lost it on a pipe. They followed it for a bit then I downsized and Weighted a s-waver 168 and got it to the bottom faster and pulled this Guy out. 1230 pm sun over head. 68 air temp. 50.7 water temp. 8mph E-winds . 6ft visibility. Off the tree placed just off the main lake point / channel swing don't really know what to call it. It's too broad to be a point. Either way. . Their not long but they're definitely starting to feed up. This little guy was hefty. M4TT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
