Fishin pics from Sunday....

[Fishooked]

Yes I pulled it off!

3 day weekend and went fishing twice! ;D




This little cove has been my haven as of late - I have been slaying them in here on Senkos




This was the magic color this day -



First fish, nice start at 16 inches







I brought the UL outfit in hopes of catching some small ones to use for bait...







Best fish of the day, just over 17 inches




I know this because I finally put that ruler sticker in my canoe








Have I said how kickass Steve's lures are?










And yes, I'm a little anal about organization

Hi Ted,

the worm has a awesome colour, the bass there are blind now.

The tackle boxes on the last pic are very impressive.( I hope that is a correct style to write)

COOL pictures and nice bass you got.

Ya that senko is a favorite color of mine as well.By looking at it I believe thats color 213 Junebug Purple/Emerald Flake.The only gripes I have about Yamamoto baits is they are not very durable and they are expensive,but the catch a ton of fish so I guess that evens it out.

I have a huge tackle bag with just Yamamoto plastic.The thing weighs a ton.

Have you tried the 7 in senkos yet? I never caught a bass with them but the 24 to 30 in pike love them .You should see what the bait looks like after a pike hits it.

Great pics as usual!!!!!!!!!

I like the labels on the tackle trays,might have to give that a try.

I bet it takes you 20 minutes to change baits All those trebles in on spot must make one hell of a RATS NEST

Nice pics!!!!
You catched on a blue lure,wow i never caught any fish on blue
I think tthis is not my colour and i try it many times!!!
From where you got the Rapala messure sticker in your boat?

[walleye270]

Hey Steve,

Those fat rap colors are badass!!

Ted, nice fish. That looks like a pretty sweet lake. Whats your largest bass out of there?

[Fishooked]

For some reason there was a stretch where they were all over Red Shad Laminate.

Now they won't go near it, its all about anything purple or dark with flakes in it.

I haven't tried the 7" ones yet, but they must cast a mile. I have plenty of 10" Power Worms that have been sitting idle because of the way the Senkos have been working.

Although I have been in a bit of a Rapala slump lately.

But I can't complain, hardly anyone fishes it as regularly as I had been lately. It's hard to tell how big my biggest one was, but it was on a MR-9 and probably 5 lbs. I've gotten my share of 4lb ones in here as well.

andy I'll send you one the next time I send something your way; the ruler sticker is part of the free pak they give you for buying 5 Rapala lures (along with the DVD and some other stuff)

And yeah, there are 17 lures attached to the one lure you want, everytime

This is a better view of 'home base' -

The arrow all the way on the left is my house

The arrows on the lake are usually where I've done best, the right-most arrow is where I got most of my fish on Sunday, the top arrow is by the dam, where I got my 5lb one near the dam.

Thanks Thomas. The other Plano soft-sider I had was only built to hold 5 3700 boxes, but I made it fit 8

The old one did have to go, I've had it for at least 10 years and it was starting to get moldy. I guess that's what happens when you take a wet tackle box and leave it in a damp, dark garage lol

The Rapala box will take getting some used to, its BIG, and very tall too. It is pretty stable though, even if you take out all of the boxes the top part doesn't sag too much - and I usually keep that top part loaded with plastics.

Its got good side pockets for keys, camera, phone, etc, a couple of tool holsters on one side, and a big pocket in the pack where I keep my terminal tackle binder.

It also has some zippers in the lid for smaller items, good to keep a phone or ipod dry if it rains.

Hey Ted nice fish!

[bluefishbuster]

Nice bass and bluegill. Nice pics of your tackle boxes.
