May 6th and May 7th Bass reports - Johnny Bucktails
May 6th: Yesterday was an absolute slaughter. Went after school for only a few hours with my uncle and cousin Frankie. We had bass on the whole time. Bass blowing up around the boat and eating chunks right as i dropped them in the water. It was chaos. We landed a bunch of really nice fish all over 20 pounds and played catch and release until we ran out of bait which didn't take long. I also lost the biggest fish of my life, on her first run she took me too a point in my line that i had never been before. She came up to the surface and i shit my pants. Looked like a whale !! Shook her head two times and POP! Just another fish story i guess. Over 40 pounds for sure. Definitely our best day this year without a doubt. Fish have moved in heavy and its only going to get better.
May 7th: Today was a totally different day from yesterday. We had terrible conditions, wind against tide the whole time. Had an unexpected wind out of the east which made a for sloppy seas. We stuck it out for a while and were greeted with a beautiful 32 pounder. Big fish of the year so far. Only going to get bigger and better. Unfortunately that was the only landed fish for the short trip but had a hell of a time with my friends from school. They are spoiled now.
