We have had severe storms lately. Lots or rain and wind. I was easing up the lake today and I saw a limb sticking out of the water quite a ways from shore. Never been there before and I fish this lake once a week so must be blown in recently. As best I could tell it was about 50 feet long with the root wad stuck on the bottom in 5 fow. A squrebill bounced across the trunk caught 11 nice, fat bass and 4 crappie.

Squarebill spanked 18 more on wood around the lake. Reminds me of an old saying,

"Minnow be nimble,

Minnow be quick.

If bass gonna get you,

He must hide by a stick."

Nice rhyme, nice fishing Al. You're one of my favorite members, keep that rod cranked my man!

The belly on that third one is impressive. Thanks for showing us the limb too. I always like to see where bass were caught.

I'm not surprised. Al, like Clayton, has mastered many lures and has a great nose for bass.

Those are some beasts! Great report and great pics!

@Swamp Girl I'm not sure who that is, but I just have a high level of respect for ol' boys like Al. No ego, no bs, no fluff; just catches fish. My kinda dude.

@JonB2 I think the Clayton she was referring to is the great @Bluebasser86

Yep, Al's the man.
