My 1st bass of 2009!

Well Bass season opener weekend finally made it to Wisconsin! At least in the southern zone. I wasn't able to go on the official day it opened, May 2nd. I was able to go out Sunday May 3rd for a little while.


We (my hubby and I) went to Long Lake in Brillion WI. Not our first choice of lake but had to make due because it was close by and we didn't have alot of time. Weather wasn't too bad. Around 60 degrees and windy. The lake was pretty clear. You could see bottom at 4ft.


It wasn't long after we got there that I was able to boat my first bass of the season! YAY!!! The only braggin right it had. It was just legal at 15-16". I was using a black bullet style spinnerbait with red eyes and a green pumpkin-Blue skirt with copper colorado and willowleaf blades in the deep. After running deep for awhile and nothing, I decided to start running it high and BAM! I had another one surface and go for my lure but it kicked it back at me.


A little while later Pat and I had a double. Mine was bigger:O) But smaller than my 1st catch. We fished for another 2 hours and didn't get nothing so we headed out and called it a day. I was so excited to finally get out and bass fish! It was a great day for me as I always get beat out by my hubby Today I beat him out with the biggest fish and most fish. 2 for me-1 for you. I win!!!!
