Hi everyone,
I really do not know what has gotten into me lately with all of this fishing stuff, and when Glen came in to work today I told him well the store is yours to run today and I am taking my wife Laurie out for her first outing at bass fishing.
Well it did take a couple of attempts for Laurie to be able to cast her line out and once she accomplished that it was time to target some largemouth bass. We went out on the Bay of Quinte for some bass fishing and I think that Laurie is now keen on bass fishing. I taught her how to texas rig some senko baits and then we also did some wacky rigging and before you knew it she was into some bass. We tried some different baits as well as some Zoom frogs however the winners were Yamamoto senko worms. We also tried some top water lures however today was not the day for to tease the bass with topwater baits.
Here is Laurie with her very first largemouth bass.
Here is Laurie's 2nd largemouth bass.
After we finished targeting largemouth bass I thought it would be nice to have her target some smallmouth bass and enjoy their fighting skills on light line. Laurie became a real pro in no time and here is Laurie with a couple of small mouth bass. She did get 4 in total.
Well that is it for today's outing. On Sunday Glen and I will be hitting a private lake quite hard and I will be posting pics from that trip and then on Monday I will be taking Laurie out again targeting more bass. This keeps up and I will have to charge her guiding fees.
Best regards,
Sam
