Awesome first day

[JJensen]

Went out on a small lake near the hawley area and just hammered the blugills. I caught 40+ and only 2 of them were 6 inches. they rest were 7 8 and a few 9 inchers. i only kept 6. let the rest go for another day. I also caught 4 bonus bass and a northern. It was so fun im going to go back tomorrow. got to love christmas break from college

Got some bass too huh? Did you get 'em on the pan fish rig or did you have a rig set up to catch some bass.

Reason I'm asking is that I'm going to try and catch some bass this winter. Usually I just fish for pans, but I'm hoping to get some largemouth too.

i was using a small northland forage minnow and that caught all of the fish. i tried other jigs but they were just hammering the spoon. i tipped them with a waxie. and a 2 pound bass puts on one heck of a fight when your usng a panfish rod and 2 pound line.
