White Bear Bass


I Bass SLAY3R I

Recommended Posts

First off, a huge Welcome To FishingMinnesota.com Great to have you with us. Please join in on the many forums here, and I think its great that your first post was in the Bass Forum... grin.gif

As for WBL, I missed your post last night.. so, your probably out fishing... I hope your setting the hook on one as I type!!

If it were me I would throw topwaters on the flats in the morning.. THen try and throw some deep cranks to locate some fish, then slow down with a texas rig or other slow moving lure. My guess with the weather/season, they will be on the outter edge still on the points or inside turns. You will also find a few fish shallow in the slop still yet.

Again, welcome, and good luck!

Let me second that welcome. There is so much on this site in the form of information that it will make up for some time on the water. The people on here are also tremendously helpful in just about any question you ask.

i have never fished wbl but i know many of the fellas on here love it so i am sure they will jump in and give you their 2 cents.

***Deitz what are you doing looking at the bass forum when you should be in school. Isn't that naughty???? ike

Ike-We teachers arent to be to school till 8am, and our school day doesnt start till 9:10... So, I wasn't breaking any naughty rules.. LOL... and now is my prep time(on this day at least)...

Also- to the original poster.. I was looking at your profile and saw you were a student in WBL... If you look at my last name.. you may recognise it... I believe my wife may have been a past teacher of yours...

I started early this morning mainly searching for deep bass but also went pretty shallow. The bass were pretty slow this morning, i only caught 6 with the biggest a 17 incher. All of the bass i caught were in 12 to 15 feet of water on a texas rigged water beatle. Also the first spot i fished a 20 ft hump and on my first cast with a rapala DT-16 i caught a 35 inch musky which put up a nice fight and also went aiborne about four feet.

I fish WB often (not anymore that school has started..[PoorWordUsage]ers)... er.. but anyway... I my 'deep water bass' on WBL are 14+' or so... perhaps between a steeper drop off and terminating weedline. I do well with plastics mainly.. but still.. even though it's not fall yet.. I found last week some great fish in 4-6' area's between sand or rocky flats surrounded by weeds... and I got a few nice ones with poppers in perhaps just 2 feet of weedy water too.. now that the water is cooling! Too late but have fun anyway!

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
