Late Fall Smallmouth Trip

Posted on November 16, 2009

This past Sunday looked to be a nice day, I still had not winterized my boat and I figured the Vikings playing the Lions was the equivalent of a second consecutive bye week. All this added up to a smallmouth trip in my boat. All in all, I caught 8 or 9 pretty nice smallmouths and a northern, no giants but a pretty good day. Water temps were 40-42 degrees.

I caught one nice fish on a Sexy Shad Red Eye Shad Lipless crank, another on a Scrougner head / fluke combo, the rest of my fish came on a 3.5" Coffee Tube rigged on a 1/8" Tube Jig head.

This outing also served as an opportunity to get some filming done for a future All About Bass episode. So enjoy a few of the raw footage of a few of the fish catches! With the cool temps and the frigid water, my Akinetix Moisture wicking undershirt, Multi-Sport Gloves and AK Beanie were integral in keeping comfortable and grabbing the chilly smallies from the water. Now, I think I need to get my boat out once more.......
