Reem_er Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 1st post, sorry if i screw it up somehow. A friend took me swimbait fishing for my first time. He recommended I pick up a s-wave 200 glide bait as he had been getting bit on it where he was taking me fishing. The shop only had the 168 and he said they really wanted that larger profile. They had a savage gear glide swimmer 205, and the $22 price tag was nice so I picked that up. The fish blew up at my feet in a foot of water 3 different casts, even lazily swimming away along shore the second time. Finally stuck it the 4th time and ended up being my PB 100%. Sadly no scale (of course), but my previous PB went 5.2 and this fish crushed it by length and width. The two guys I was with have caught multiple 8s and 10s and called it a healthy 6. But I will just have to catch and weigh some more to get an idea. Not a monster by any means but man was it fun with those blow ups leading up to sticking it. Just what I need, another addiction.

I have been bass fishing for a few years now but not really seriously, couple times a month is all. Fishing saltwater for about 10 and pretty seriously the last 4-5 years. Have purposely avoided swimbaits cause I didn't think I would have time (or money) to dedicate to it. Of course I go and stick a good one my first time out and get myself all fired up about it. Wife is gonna be pissed. VolunteerSwimbaits 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VolunteerSwimbaits Posted February 19, 2019 Report Share Posted February 19, 2019 That's awesome. If you are anything like me, just have checks made out to you, tell them to just write "Blackmarket" on it. Haha Welcome to SU.
