So it is duck season here, which is like another religion to most locals. My dad is a very seasonal type person who likes to put the rods up in october when the first hint of hunting season appears. Well I love to fish and I have been nagging on my dad about going fishing and stop being so uptight. Well we have had plenty of rain lately and lots of back water off the red and ouchita rivers causing our local lakes and tributaries to be extremely high. The ducks have moved north and we haven't been killing any so for the first time ever, my dad surprised me and said let's go fishing. The water finally decided to start falling after almost 2 months and caused lots of good current around points on our local lake and it definately paid off... here are a few pics.

Well since the water was a little high I decided to throw a deep diving, suspending, white bomber with red eyes. Guess they wanted it! lol They came up schooling like they do in the middle of july and august.... I had always thought bass were very subtle in the winter but these bass were going crazy . Guess the current and fall of the water had em turned on. Just goes to show, you can never tell what they are going to do.....

Nice fish.I have smashed them on the Bombers as well.There's nothing like finding them schooling and hammering them on a crank bait.

Nice Fish.
