Some pre-work rainy day action...

[buzzbaiter]

Hit a local pond. Got 7 bass between 13-17" and 5 pickerel between 14-18". Not bad for an hour in the rain. Saw fish breaking surface on golden(?) shiners so I used Gary Yamamoto 2.5" Shibuki popper. Worked liked a charm. Did lose one lure on a large pickerel that completely cleared the water sideways attacking it. Moments like that are why I love topwater fishing(seeing the pickerel jump not losing the lure - lol).

Now off to work

Nice pics of those bass and slime darts, bummer about the lost lure should of used a steel leader w/ a clip that way it stays on. And the dart won't steal it.

I never lost a lure to a slime dart i always fish with a steel leader & clip tied on for quick changing lures all year round. Because the places i fish are loaded with darts
