I fished from the bank Friday and whlle I fished two other guys came near me to fish a short distance away. One of them caught an 19" long Large Mouth Black Bass from the Shoreline. I took a picture of one of the guys holding the fish but the other guy was the one who caught it. We measured it with a tape measure to make sure it was legal. They said that they keep their bass and eat them. So there is one less bass in Bluegrass today.
I caught and released 5 small bass and about 4 sunfish. I lost three jig heads as I was using 2 lb test line that was a few years old and my knots kept breaking as I hauled the fish into the bank. The swam off from the shoreline with a jig still in their mouth. So if you catch a bass with a Squirmin Squirt White Lighting BPS jig body in their mouth that would be the fish I caught. I better put some new fishing line on my reels while the boat's in the shop.
Yesterday started out cold and windy, very windy. After the wind died down a bit it was a lot nicer. I fished for about 5 hours and enjoyed the sunshine.
