She INHALED a 6" savage gear line thru trout and weighed in at 7lbs 3oz topping my previous PB by 9oz which was caught last fall... That's 3 consecutive falls giving me a new personal best, I'll take it! Haha, tight lines and get on that fall bite!

 

Congrats on the new PB!  That is a heck of a fish!

Awesome largemouth, congrats! The huge head and mouth on that one are built for eating trout!

 

question: Does the lake you caught that one on get stocked with trout? I feel a "swimbait" phase is coming for me sometime in the near future. I am curious if that trout profile if only a good option when trout are a forage option for the bass

Wow thats a beauty

The funny thing is there are no trout native to the spot I was fishing. It leads into a river inhabited by trout but  I was comfortable with a trout color because the water was so stained, almost muddy, that I figured a fish wouldn't shy... And it paid off, but it does make me want to throw it in some bodies of water near me that get stocked with trout..

I catch bass on shad lakes with no trout using trout swimbaits, and bass in trout lakes with no shad on Shad swimbaits.

I don't think a bass has ever seen anything resembling a 10" plum worm but they sure do like them.

nice fish there man!!

get on that fall bite!

 

what fall bite ? 

Sweet PB. Congrats on your fall success.

Nice bass! Congrats!

From what I gather a lot of fish that are caught on trout baits are caught in areas were there isn't even any trout in the first place. Since a bass is an ambush predator I dont believe they even care what type of fish it is, if its an easy meal they'll try and eat it. To be honest half of the stuff I see bass caught on dont even look like anything they've seen before, or that lives in the body of water from where they were caught from.
