nice catch jeep and cant wait to see the mold snake
I haven't heard back from my mold maker but I'm assuming that he will answer real quick I use the dancer last night and caught one smallmouth Bass about a pound and a half the crappie were not hitting at all so I cut it off short and come home to blast of hot it was 102 yesterday here at the house and I believe it was a lot warmer down on the snake River.
it has been hot here too snake, not 102 but hot enough. The humidity here is what makes it unbearable
96 here for the 23rd straight day. Forecast is for two more weeks of the same.
yep ship we have had to endure it for a while, I am about sick of it
it was 102 two days ago and been staying in the 90s here the heat has been terrible here it has cooled off today but going right back to 80s and 90s again we have hot weather all the way through July and August every year it averages 90s and 100° through these two months.
I caught 10 slabs yesterday.....caught a whole bunch of short fish and threw them back. Could not get a bite on soft plastics, tied jigs, or live minnows. The only thing they will hit in this hot weather is a Bandit crankbait eith 200 or 300 size. I was miserable all last winter so I am not going to complain about the heat. My arthritus is a lot better and does not bother me as bad when its hot.
where did you get them bandit crank bait they have not made Dills for quite some time and less this is a different version the last ones that I used were soft plastic I still have a few they stopped like a sad making them quite some time ago I'm glad to hear that you've got some fish it is been very slow care like I said I've only caught one smallmouth Bass the other night know crappie I could not get those suckers to hit anything course I did not try all the different jigs that I was caring it was too hot to mess with a lot of stuff anyway I should've stayed later into the evening just before dark sometimes they'd turn on don't know about your part of the country but the habits out here are early morning in in the evening if we have a cloudy day they will hit all day but I believe this is a common thing with crappie at a quarter cross the US you cannot use live bait here in this part of the state don't know why most of the water in the snake River is full of trash fish anyway lots of cap and small fish and other white fish we could only use live bait and Tidewater asked on the west side of the state but we called the Valley or the swamp could put it a little bit plainer Portland Oregon area is most of the rivers that go into the lower half of the Columbia RA and Tidewater. It was very predictable to fish Tidewater in the summer months the basswood coming to feed when the tide was coming in is it put water into the shallows where the lagoons were that had pipes it would flow back into the river when the tide was going out the crappie would feed in front of them most of the lagoons hold trash fish which the babies got flushed out through the pipe when the water was going down.
You can get the Bandits most anywhere.....BPS has them. They are hard plastic. Ship....I have been bothered by arther for years. Have taken Celebrex, Mobic, and others...Naproxin works best for me. Some flare ups I have to take the Naproxin along with Darvocets the pain is so bad. I still fish and do what I want.....I do not take this stuff on a regular basis....only when I can't stand it. Ibuprofin does not help me.
