Missouri 3lber

I finally caught myself one over 3 lbs. I was fishing a kayak bass tournament last weekend and it turned in to a crappie trip mid morning. Was casting to what I thought were bass on isolated pieces of brush and single trees that were not visible with out the LiveScope. This one came off of an about a 4’ tree with a 45 degree bend in it about 2’ off the bottom. It had 3 others with it and one was significantly larger than the others. Of coarse that one didn’t have a chance as this one came from the bottom and smoked my spinnerbait before it even got to the tree. I marked around 20 or more fish of this size that morning on random little pieces of brush a 1/4 mile from any visible trees. I wasted all afternoon in the timber catching solid 11 1/2”-14” fish. But never marked another big fish. Guess I’m going back and do some open water scoping with some actual crappie tackle and baits to try to find some more. Hope to make it to camp to see everyone.

Wowser, what a pig, great job Jared.

very nice

Awesome and nice seeing you yesterday!

That's an outstanding fish! Congratulations on the 3# club.

congrats on that bigun!

Congrats, again, Jared! And thanks for posting it out here for us non-Facebooker's to appreciate.

Most people have to go to Mississippi to gain entrance into the 3# club!

Or...if you're keeferfish, you have to make 25 trips to catch 15 fish in order to hit 3# (if you weigh them all together)!!

Looking forward to seeing you again at camp!

That’s nice, Congrats

Jared, you use Slabsauce or G-Sauce?

Definitely a big one...Great catch.

I always am using something and 99% of the time it’s garlic. I’ve always used Bang spray for hand tied jigs and any hard baits when bass fishing. For bass plastics I use Smelly Jelly in the large jar. But have tried about every kind of scent you can think of. I have always said I don’t think it matters what you are using but to use something. It’s more of a cover scent as much as anything.

Except someone in your boat proved Gas does not make a good cover scent! :Rofl
