Spawn Is On

S P R I N G

A simple word that means so much. Especially to the angler, hunter, gardener, and just about anyone that spends time in and amongst nature. For bass fisherman, the word Spring means game time. Time to shred some shallow water greenies.

A good friend of mine from Latitude 33 Fishing Charters, Dustin Sergent called me up with some exciting news.... Spring time BASS SPAWN IS ON! Shallow water pre-spawn/spawning bed fish, are a once a year ordeal. Big bass move up into the shallows to spawn while staying tight to shorelines in and amongst tule reeds or bottom contour ledges. It gives bass fisherman some sight fishing action that doesn't come up too often. On this lake, a typical bed fish male is around the 4-5lb range and the females range from 5 lb.s on up to the 12 lb.+ mark.....

We hit the lake just after sunrise and once visibility came up, so did the fish. Dustin and I switched off the entire day consistently connecting on quality fish...... one chunk after another. We saw some MONSTER females that did not want to play but plenty of males in the 5 lb. range that were flaring their gills, ready to fight for their ladies. We managed to boat over 10 fish of this size, we drank ice cold Oscar Blues beer, ate sandwiches as big as our heads, dusted a bag of chips and salsa, and went home completely burnt with a smile from ear to ear.
