Northern Michigan swimbait smackdown

Featured Replies

Whoever says michigan bass wont hit big baits is sadly mistaken. Went on leave for 6 days to be in a wedding. Of course had to fish for 4 of those days. It was an epic week of slammer, punker and gantarel fishing. Didn't bring the deps 250s or pizz baits cuz I'll be home again in 2 months and didn't have my swimbait rods. So 7/9" slammers 8" punkers and gantarel were the ticket. Final day we had some monsters attempting to crush our baits but they would blow up and completely miss. So can't blame ourselves. Other than that I believe every fish hooked came.to.the boat. Had some serious bass palm at the end of this trip.

Thanks! @UPSmallie been all over the country after 10 years active duty. And still have yet to find a better state for consistent 4-5lbrs. With very little pressure. 3 days on 2 dif lakes not another boat.

That's pretty damned cool! I've lived here all my life and would not have thought to throw something like that for bass in Michigan!  d**n, I hear the bait monkey already! LOL!

 

Nice job guys!
