SICK!,
50 legals off one spot!, SICK! Chris "go-bassn" wrote in message ... That's quite a coincidence Richard buddy - remember that great day I was talking about? Yup, Manor Lake. Warren "Richard Liebert" wrote in message ... I never keep bass, however I keep trout occasionally if the situation warrants. For example, we kept trout during a backpacking trip this past summer in the Wind River Range in Wyoming. BTW- Since you are a local Warren, the lake was Manor Lake in Tulleytown. The eagle grabbed his meal off of the stump flats. I was working a white spinnerbait along the far shore by the creek outlet when I saw him. "go-bassn" wrote in message ... ...hopefully to be released later. Nice job Richard, very observant of you. One tiny ripple on the opposite side of a flat led me to one of the best days I've ever had here in PA, about 50 good keepers including my first "double". Pays to be observant. Warren http://www.warrenwolk.com "Richard Liebert" wrote in message ... All kidding aside, I was somewhat frustrated "looking" for bass on my home lake earlier this summer. Being a devotee of Rich Z's book, I tried to think like a bass, not the master of a tackle box. Sure enough, as I was looking out over the lake I saw an eagle swoop down and pluck a small bait fish out of the water. A few minutes later I was casting a floating rapala in the vicinity of where the eagle grabbed his meal. It wasn't long until I had a nice fat bass in the live well. Sometimes it pays to step back and re-think your approach towards finding fish. |

I believe it was on the same flat Richard speaks of too. October or
November in fact. Never moved the boat, fish were 2-3 pounds apiece. They were EATING my 1/2 oz chrome/blue rattletrap. Warren "Chris Rennert" wrote in message . ..

One of my favorite lures in the cold water. Chrome w/blue...thinking about
it now it might have been a post by you that made me purchase that color. Either way cold water bass seem to like it. "go-bassn" wrote in message ...

![]() I remember earlier this year seeing some baitfish busting and tossing senkos and soft jerkbaits into the mix only to reel it back in without a bite. I switched to SW spinnerbait and caught 12 keepers in about 20 minutes. Felt like I could have won the classic.. didn't want it to end "Chris Rennert" wrote in message . ..
