We landed 25 bass & pickerel over 3 or 4 hours including some big ones - a 4.75 and 3.25 LMB and some big pickerels 🎉

The Chatterbait has been the money bait for us this whole season 👍

That was certainly a good choice, some real good fishing, thanks for the pics

Terrific results for your efforts on the river! Way to go guys! Great photos and giant smiles to match the size of those fish!

Thanks, for sharing, Red, nice pics, and fish. It's a good thing those aren't any bigger, they wouldn't fit in the boat. (LOL).

Hey Fred
Yes, that was on the Assabet which comes pretty close to my house.

Maybe se should have been fishing there more this year - or maybe we just hit that magic day/time that we are always looking for.

I have to take the bass boat out tomorrow so I fished a couple of hours today - but only got 3 Crappies across 7 rods & baits. I’ve been trying to get big baits working but it wasn’t a good year for them. Thank goodness for the Chatterbait & Jigs > they got me a 6.2, 5.8, 4.3, 4.75 and a few 3+s 😎

You're killing it up there Red, I haven't been able to buy any that big down here. I may have to come up and visit next year. Where besides the river do you find such big Bass?

Gordon Loc: Charleston South Carolina

Nice Fish Red. That's something to smile about.

Hi Fred
I live on Lake Boon. Some of those were caught on Boon but we also fish 5 or 6 other lakes in the area on the weekend - because Boon can be pretty stingy 😅

No guarantees but I’d love to have a fish together next season 🎣👍

What type of fishing apps do you like?

Thanks,

I'd love to come up and fish somewhere with populations of Bass that size. They're very few and far between down here.

Let’s plan on that after ice out 🎣
I’ll still fish for a few weeks from my Coleman Crawdad but it’s not as comfortable & the weather conditions are tougher 😬
