One of my best days was when the bass has the bait trapped in the pocket at Indian Rock.. These bass were all 20lb and up fish and they were so tight in the pocket that you could have walked acros them. I was throwing a mad darter and a weightless queed cocohoe with a beefy 5/0 siwash through it and for the life of me i couldnt get a double, while I was catching fish on every cast. After I caught and released about 20 of these big keeper bass I decided I had enough and when I was tieing down my rod to the truck I noticed that my 5/0 VMC siwash had been straightened and thats why I had no doubles that day..
The next day I went there with Throwing TImber on my birthday and they were there agian! not in large numbers, but they were there and with my new hook i managed a double on the first cast.. one was 37 1/2 inches and the other was 35 inches..
The blitz that chef was talking about was a good one also.. I too lost monster. It straighted out all 3 of my trebbles after 3 strong runs.. I would have landed that fish if I hadn't clamped down my drag after the 3rd run...
This year is going to be better!
