Thread: GOOD BYE AUGUST

It's been typical for August with the heat and all, staying close to home and fishing mostly for bass. Averaging about five bass in a morning before the heat chased me off. Lot's of 15-18" bass. The past few trips with cooler temps I tried fishing for the big grass carp I see occasionally. Hooked one Thursday and when it jumped it landed on the 6# line and broke me off. Saturday I'm giving it another go. First bite on a home made dough bait I hook up but not a carp. A bass had eaten my dough bait. It was a good one too, over 20". That sure don't happen every day. Three trips and zero grass carp but at least the bass are biting and I'm not getting skunked.
