Anyone Fishing on the 4th?

[fastcat]

That right there is the best lure I have ever used on the 4th............... Put some trebel hooks on there and its ready to go. Its very effective.All you have to do is find the fish

What a great day! I could've thrown a terd on a hook and caught fish, they were biting everything, even topwater at 2 in the afternoon on a sunny 90 degree day. My buddy and I each had over 20 bass, 5 4lbs plus, lots of 1's and 2's and a few really nice pickerel 20 inches plus! Man I love days like that!

I just got back in and they are biting like mad here too.
Had 7 bass on the buzzbait in about as many casts...
I was scattering the buzzbait as I cranked it in, makes a splash like noise like shad moving, the bass couldn't resist...I wish it was that easy most of the time..
I switched to a craw dude from wave and got 3 more, but the bigger fish all came from the buzzbait, this time I used a 4 inch 2 bladed prop, along with a chartruse skirt and small 2 inch chartruse grub, also had a few half hearted hits on the spinner but the didnt really seem to want it, all the buzzbait fish were 16-18 inches,, not bad for up here in ohio.
Glad to hear others are doing so well 8)

i was fishing on the 4th, i was camping on lake Somerville state park, we fished the lake the whole four days, and the fourht was the best day...me and a bud caught 6 largemouth that ranged from 10 to 14 inches and about 2 to 4 pounds...not too bad for one day. HAPPY 4th

Sounds just like my monday. Buzzbait killed them for about 30minutes to an hour late 7:15pm-8:00PM Previous to that, I caught several on spinnerbaits, and Ghostbaits sweet beaver knockoffs. And a couple on the Baby paca craw, got no takers on a crank though :'( This was monday 7/6. The idiots were actually out skiing on the coal pit, and not just 1 but 4-5 at a time. This is a small probably 50 acre area where they can ski, with shallow points, laydowns, and narrow channels Last time I saw 2 boats skiing at the same time I came around a corner, and they were both stopped, with one having the ski rope of the other wrapped around it's prop : I'm just waiting for a someone to get killed bfore they ban skiing and tubing. Unfortunately that's what it usually takes :'( Anyway had a good 5 hours on the lake, just fished in the shaded banks(it was 93 degrees with 93% humidity). Then worked some shallows for the last bit of buzzbait fun ;D
