It took me 12 hours of fishing before I found any fish! Bt luckily I found them and found what they wanted. An XR50 blue/chrome, same in red eye shad, and an olive Xrap on windy drop offs. However, they are only on the points that lead into major creeks. The big fish are cruising these points.

This lake does not produce many large bass. However, we caught several chunks and over 40 fish total. This first pick is last weekend when I finally found them!!! The rest are from this morning. I just thought I would share.

This is the one from the weekend. It was caught on an X rap worked extremely slow. (My buddy talked me into this reel so I was showing him what it produced) This fish was like reeling in a boot...no fight at all.

This was the biggest from today. She hammered and XR50 and did NOT want to come to the boat!! It was a fun fish.

This is another decent XR50 fish. They would not touch another color.

TThis is my buddy who broke his PB of 4.5lbs with this gal. I am glad I could get him on a bigger fish. It was the second best we caught today.

And another nice one thatI personally thought was going to be a monster. This fish stripped drag like a redfish.

I just thought you guys might enjoy some fish pics

Nice fish.

those are some nice fish!

nice fish! what was the water temp you were fishing in?

51 but Im not sure I trust the gauge on my buddy's boat. However, thats the temp we start catching them on traps every year.

The first pic is on another lake that is deeper and it was 45. The fish were hitting jerkbaits better there bt had started on the traps later this week. We moved lakes and it was all abot the traps.

nawice fish,gotta love winter bassin

I've been on that same pattern here.  The big fish love those excaliburs.

wow those are some pigs! Great Day...

Thanks, It was a good one. We boated over 40 bass and found a drop off that produced fish for 2 straight hours. It was a small drop off from 4' gradually down to 12'. The bass would hammer the traps about halfway back from the dropoff. I was throwing a blue/chrome xcalibur and catching them left and right. My buddy was throwing a craw colored and a black/chrome rat'l'trap and didn't catch a single fish. I gave him a chrome/blue red eye shad and he started pounding them immedietly. These 2 baits produced all day.

There is nothing easier than fishing traps and those 2 are great ones.

Great fish!

These are great fish!!!

I've got the same XR50 as in your third pic.  I just got it and have only thrown it once though (no takers).  

you really did a number on 'em.  good goin' man.  that xr50 is tough to beat.
