With all today's rain, I took a break from archery season preparation.......... Fishing with a Norman L'il N and Kitech swimbaits the bite was better than I expected. I certainly lost my share today. I'd guess I must have  lost 80% of those bass hooked on the swimbaits.  I hate transition times like this. It's hard for me to focus on fishing. Good luck to everyone else that finds themselves in this same situation. 

Did you ever really have them? When do you say "lost" officially? I've lost a few that were hooked and jumping while I reeled...others I felt something while reeling for a few seconds, then nothing. I don't say that I lost those. They never ate the bait.

At least you were out on the water Stitch.  I worked all day.....
