Went out fishing for 7 hours on Saturday and it made up for my lack of fishing the past 2 weeks. Started at noon and averaged about 2 fish per hour until 6pm. It was a bit slow but the bites were big, we had our top 5 fish by 5pm. The bite started to pick up at 6pm, we found a school of 3-4lb fish on a 6ft rock flat and ended up with 30 of them in the last hour of fishing. It was unreal and probably the best fishing I've personally had in MN for pure size. My father-in-law broke off a 5.5lber at the boat right at the end that would have put us over the 28lb mark, but at that point it didn't even matter. All the fish were caught on 3/8oz NSCB jigs, either the New Gill Flip and Swim or Flippin Blue Knockout Jig

.Here are the pics of our top 5 fish. Weights were, 5.97, 5.7, 5.5, 5.48, and 4.67

Not a ton of lakes in MN that produce a bag like that. Nice way to end the season, and that should keep a smile on your face for a few weeks anyway.

What an accomplishment especially for so far north. I had my best year ever for the largest 5. It was over 30# but that was for the whole year in Idaho. You done good

Wow, what beasts!!!! And that many in a single day too!!!!! I've yet to land anything over 2.5 lbs in my life bass wise

Sweet! Thats a big sack of northern green!
