Decided to hit up the creek before the storms rolled in today...and before the work around the house.

Pretty slow, water had dropped to normal from the massive rain last week.

After about 20 minutes, I felt some weight on the line...the kind of weight you know you are hung up on something...was able to bring it on.

Lo and behold, one of my d bombs, WITH one of my tungsten bullet weights still attached to the 5' of line! WIN!

Can't beat getting a tungsten weight back after breaking off. Just look at what happens when a dbomb is submerged for months...lol

 

Kept throwing my black w/ chartreuse tail zoom lizard, determined not to get skunked! I felt the slightest weight on the line, figured I hung up on another branch down below...so i let the line go slack for a couple seconds, pulled it a little...hmmmm, never felt a bite, then I felt it, slowly moving, set the hook, and brought in a nice little creek bass...about a pound or more.

 

He choked that lizard, took a couple minutes to get the hook out of him, but he swam off very lively. A good day!

Lucky to get that sinker back, catching a fish is a nice bonus too!

 

That D-bomb is the reason why we shouldn't throw our used plastics into the water. They swell like that in the fish's stomach and intestines  too and kill them slowly.
