Fall Heat Wave
November 6, 2008
It had been quite some time since I had Charlie & Tony on the water, but they were back today for some incredible smallmouth bass action. The weather was a carbon copy of yesterday with warm air temps reaching into the 60’s and little to no wind. The sunshine didn’t help though as there were more boats out today than I had seen all fall! Tony hooked into the first bass and was amazed to see its size when I finally got it in the net. It weighed 4.10 and was a great starter fish! Charlie followed up shortly after with a couple that were slightly smaller. We moved around fairly often today trying to get into a larger concentration and found fish just about everywhere. The larger ones however, were slower to come by until the afternoon, when Tony started the ball rolling with a fish that went close to five. After that, there were plenty of others that came aboard in the same size range as well. There were even a couple of nice walleye in the 3-pound range that were taken and Charlie gladly volunteered to take them home for dinner. All in all it was a pretty good day despite the beautiful conditions. I can’t wait for the cold to arrive once again!!
