Bass and SLABS!
The Previous Year's Catch of Bass at The Same Lake!
Friday, March 3, 2000, Derrell Reid and I caught one of the finest stringer of Bass and White Perch that I have ever seen. We fished in a land locked lake off the Mississippi River and found them spawning in 1-2 ft of water. We were actually bass fishing, but these big slabs were hitting big white spinner baits as good as the bass! These white perch avergaged 2 - 3 lbs! Bass ranged from 2 to 5 lbs. We filled up the first ice chest in a few hours, went back and got a bigger ice chest and filled it to the top again! We stayed within the limit, they were just that big.
We lost 10-15 bass that would have gone between two and five pounds
in the stobs and logs.
Our trolling motor battery finally gave out and we called it quits.
A Good Day On The Water
