I fished a Maine bog yesterday as I reported in Trip Reports. It's a quality bog, but not a quantity bog. Come summer, 85% of it will be lily pads, but right now, it looks like a lake, albeit a shallow lake with zombie weeds in the basement. I caught as big a bass as I've ever caught by a beaver dam and I caught a 5-lber yesterday near a shoreline. I also hooked another nice fish in the middle of a shallow flat, but the bites are rare and I discern no pattern. I've worked the old river channel, points, laydowns...all the usual suspects. I catch one here. I catch one there. I'm wondering when the weeds start to grow, will the bass perk up and maybe concentrate. If so, then where? Tim (T-Billy) mentioned that this might become aggressive when the weeds emerge. Have any of you guys witnessed something similar? 

 

Here's that beaver dam bass, so fat she's funny and below her, here's the bass I caught yesterday, a little longer, but half a pound lighter:

 

 

 

What I'm asking is: Will a pattern emerge as the weeds emerge? Or is this perhaps a bog with a few big gals and not much for numbers, meaning the fish are far apart?
