Last day of the month and we had to take another road trip, just to be able to fish. Craig & Herm were here for their second day and I decided to hit another body of water, in hopes of some big bass. The weather was expected to be unseasonably warm again, with even stronger winds. Hopefully, we would still be able to fish!

Upon arriving at our first spot, I realized that the conditions were definitely doable. Craig & Herm began casting and it didn’t take long before they were hit. Too bad they lost several, before landing the first bass though. These fish were short striking the baits and I believe Craig actually missed his first six before keeping one pinned. Things eventually picked up and more fish were being caught than lost. Although not all big, they sure acted like they were. These things were all fat & healthy! Pics were only taken of the largest fish caught and that honor went to Herm today. For some reason he was being rewarded with the heavyweights!

After covering plenty of water all morning, with great results, I decided to try a few other places, in bigger winds. The gusts had increased by afternoon and apparently the activity level from the fish did as well. In fact, one of the areas was just loaded and Craig beat on them pretty good. Herm also caught a bunch too and their numbers kept climbing! He however was getting the bigger ones and did right until the very end. By the time we were done, they ended it with another fish. In fact, they left them biting!

Today was another great fall fishing day, just loaded with action. They were bit from the start, right up until the last cast of the day. Everything in between was just icing on the cake! High numbers of big fish were caught and even the average ones were quality. The weather was a real bonus as well with temps in the mid 70’s. The last day of October definitely went out with a bang! Hopefully the weather will remain nice for a few more weeks as this could be the year that allows me to fish right into December. I’m crossing my fingers, as there’s Still plenty of great fishing ahead!!
