Over the past 7 days I have spent 4 days working with the FLW Outdoors
Group running a Media Boat for the College FLW Regional Tournament here
on Lake Monroe and the St Johns River.The Florida Gators came a way with the
win just like last year.The water temps are still hanging around in the mid to
upper 70's and this has the fish biting very well.I spent today on the River with
my good buddy Hank looking at some areas for up coming trips this week.
First area we stopped at produced about 30 fish from 1 to 4 pounds.
For over an hour Hank and I caught a fish or lost a fish on every cast.
These fish would pound the Rattle Trap into the shell bottom then jump
and come unhooked.We were only in two foot of water.Hank started casting
a Texas Rigged Worm and catching a fish on every cast.We left those fish
biting and started working some thick grass along the main River edge and
caught a few nice fish on a Bitters Speed Worm.Today Oct 28th we spent most of the morning fishing a frog and speed worm over heavy grass on the St Johns River.Unlike yesterdays 30 to 40 fish we only caught
7 today.We stayed off the schooling fish and spent the morning trying to get a
few big bites instead of numbers of fish.It paid off with a couple nice 7 pounders.
Jan Feb March 2011 are booking up fast so don't delay booking your trip for the
up coming spawn.Take a look at the Bass Challenger 2008 2009 2010
Trophy Pages and see what fishing Largemouth Bass during the spawn is
all about.
