Cbump

this is Hubbard creek.

No Shad spawning at all on this lake. The two big bass caught were not spawned, didn’t see any beds but the wind didn’t help that. Water was 62 degrees. Everything was still prespawn pattern it seems. We haven’t really had any rain out here. This lake is 8’ low.

It was a pretty good day! I just posted in the catch thread.

I got 3rd place overall in the tournament today. 3 fish Limit tournament. I had 8.14 lbs. Winner was 9.5, second 8.75. I also got second place big bass at 5.65lbs. I lost two others between 4 and 5 pounds but that’s the way It goes I guess.

I’ve done It before and sold the free items.

Yes it’s going to be tough in the wind tomorrow for sure! Thank you. Hope to have some giants to post tomorrow.

Ready for tournament in the morning.

The local Karls brick and mortar store is about to run a deal where if you spend $175 you get a free pair of Mondo Optics and a free Googan Green rod. I have never considered any Googan item but I bet a could find $175 in fishing shirts or something. Think it’s a deal worth considering?

Only I didn’t say fudge… Lmao it’s in Cleveland, Ohio https://www.achristmasstoryhouse.com

My moms too! We’ve literally watched It every year for as long as I can remember. My mom went and stayed in the house they filmed It in. I guess it’s setup exactly like the movie and is a rental or something now.

You ever had a bass pull 30 yards of drag out? No way. I pitch and target cast Texas rigs with Tat Elite p/f. Holds 40yds. No different.

I agree they’ll eat It. Just never thought of a literal craw imitator to be a bluegill imitator.

I’d use 15lb fc on this setup and never look back. To me there’s no reason to cast jigs and Texas rigs 50 yards.

Craw to imitate a bluegill?

Lol. My name is Chris Bumpas. So Cbump. like the Bumpas hounds.

Any recommendations for guides in the area? We will be there the week of July 9 or the week of the 23rd. Thanks

Beautiful rods.

I’ll be using mine tomorrow and Sunday. Currently have a 5/0 ewg tied on and will fish weightless.

Ready for two tournaments this weekend!

What I came to say.

Yep and my time is worth way more than saving a few bucks on senkos.

This idiot dropped his toy in the pool

Time of year, conditions, etc Thanks!

3.5 pounder with a 5 pound head. And a blue fin sand bass

Back when we had our hobies and I was big into kayak fishing, I would look at the inshore and btb forums all day from work and drool. I never did much kayak fishing in Texas but we used to take them every summer to Florida and fish the lagoons and offshore. Tkf and Pensacola fishing forum kayak sections were my go to.
