This past weekend on Weiss Lake in Alabama the water temp was 85 and I caught a couple very nice spots in 2 feet of water on a buzzbait---I was very surprised to find those spots up that shallow in that water temp. There was also no current.

What have strange bass behavior have you seen this year??

This past weekend I was on a lake here in Va., I saw big females swimming around side by side with males that were themselves around 3 lbs, the biggest female I saw had to be a double digit, man she was huge, the weird thing about it is, they acted like they were getting ready to spawn when the spawn should have been long since over, then I had seen one of the females open her mouth and the young were everywhere, just as if she had coughed up a big cloud of muck, that has got to be at the top of my list of things I have ever seen on the water.

I fish Beaver Lake. The bass always act strange here. They are the most contrary fish here. They'll turn on after a cold front, turn off if the winds comes up, change patterns and locations entirely overnight even though the weather doesn't change a bit, etc, etc. Like the FLW tourney here this year. I went to the first day weigh in and the guy leading on day one was up on stage saying "Yeah, I caught at least 30 keepers. Actually, it was pretty easy. I expect my pattern to hold up.". Never made the weekend show.

Beaver is just like that. She does not give up her fish easily.

Maybe i've just never seen this before, but in my lake, i saw a bass scream out from a brush pile, miss my lure completely and shoot off into the next brush pile. not even a half a second later 2 more bass jet after the first. so i started throwing my lure along the brush piles, i hook up i with one only to lose it when i jumped out of the water. nothing too weird yet. but 10 minutes later i hook up with a 3.5 pounder and im working it out of the brush pile and into open water towards me. as i look down in the water i see two other bass chasing the hooked bass. all three were nose to nose until i reached down and lipped the one i had hooked. then they took off. maybe this was feeding frenzy and ive just never seen one up close, but i was bizarre nonetheless.

i have cought a lot of bass this year and all have been in shallow water no deeper then 3 feet

Nitrofreak, I have seen a late spawn on the Rappahannock River in Virginia so it does not surprise me that the bass may have been spawining again this late in the season.

Thanx Sam.

Sent you a PM.

Up here in central OK we had a really warm winter and the heat waves came early. Nothing is like it was last year or throw year before.

We just went on a trip last week to Northeastern Missouri and caught some nice fish up real shallow. All of our big females had torn up and even bloody tails like they were fanning beds, despite the 80 degree water temps
