Tomorrow I am going with some of my siblings on my first fishing trip of the year. Don't know what to expect right now this far north but we should be able to get some bass. We will probably catch some pike as well. We are doing a small competition as well. I will post back later, hopefully with some pics! Any suggestions where to look first for the bass. We are in Northern Wi.

Nice weather today for fishing opener. It took a while for me to get my first fish but when I did I got two in a row! They ended up being the only 2 bass of the day but it was still a good day. I started out fishing a spinnerbait and a bbz1 6 inch swimbait. I got the two fish almost right after I switched to the swim jig. Here are pictures of the bass.

Congratulations! Nice fish on the swim jig!

Good looking fish! congrats! 

Awesome! Feels good to be back right? That second fish has nice color to it.

Yeah it was great to get out fishing again! I had noticed the color difference between the fish. Do you think the darker fish has spent more time in shallow water? The other fish was really lightly colored.

Good going! That's the way to start the year!
