Thread: Hardbaits = Bass

This morning started out cloudy and then to Party cloudy followed by the wind picking up around noon .
I visited the local water reservoir that would I would usually fish for green sunfish, but the water is down between 2-3’ leaving the riprap dry . Also made it hazardous for me to walk on the rocks to get to the water .
I fished a Daiwa 5’6” Gekkabijin Ajing Rod paired with my new favorite reel. A Daiwa Fuego LT 1000D , spooled with 3# P-line Flouroclear line .
I caught three bass today using 2.5g silver spoons and a Mepps spinner tipped with a shortened chartreuse curly tail . The smallest came on the Mepps .
I’m not minding catching a few bass lately , it’s a nice change and they do put up a good fight on ultralight.
Too a pic of the other fisherman that kept me company for about an hour .
You can see in the pics how low the water is .
