We were able to get on the big lake as the winds calmed. Almost calmed too much as a couple hours each day it was glassy.
Our fish came in bundles as the bass were really bunched. And we worked hard for our bites. Extreme finesse—they were touchy!!!
Really appreciate Quiet Cove’s finesse jigheads.
The big smallies do not come unbuttoned with these quality hooks.
We will begin our perch/walleye trips very soon as it’s almost November and the calls are coming in.
Be safe!

Quality smallmouth four trips in a row on the big lake…
Good fishermen had over twenty with biggest just under five lbs on our previous trip.
Today was the first day this week that the wind allowed safe passage. The big ones were available with the best five weighing in at
6.05, 5.90, 5.22, 4.72 and 3.80–reminds me of spring weights!
The wind forecast is not good through next Monday which means more postponements to deal with.
I really appreciate the quality selection of bass fishing products at Michiana Hardware and Outdoors in Plymouth, Indiana—Shimano, Loomis, St. Croix, Megabass, LuckyCraft to name a few.
It is located a few blocks from the intersection of Highways 30 and 31.

A cold Saturday morning turned into a warm midday with a positive south wind.
The smallies were difficult until that desired wind moved baitfish shallower and then it became fun.
Big numbers topped off with a 5.60 and a 5.15 and a 4.64 with a couple others around 4.
A great day that even included a surprise catch!
It will keep getting better…

The last couple days of the September Full Moon made some “chunks” catchable!
The biggie this time weighed in at 5.86 with several others well over 4 lbs.
Sunday’s catch total was over 20 but several of them were average at best. Some were suspended and some were bottom-huggers.
A couple areas that are normally good this time of year have not kicked in yet. I’m guessing (and hoping) that it will happen after a couple days of southwest winds.
Fun stuff ahead…

Wind direction and wind velocity have been the gator in our swamp.
Yesterday was windy all day but today we had a few hours of fishable conditions.
And we took advantage of it.
Thanks to Quiet Cove Baits for the selection of jigheads we are currently using daily—the best I’ve ever used.

Great people to fish with this weekend but the weather was not cooperative. The high winds would not allow the needed finesse approach.
We did catch fish but not as many as we could have in better conditions.
Winds until Thursday? Hopefully over before
the full moon.
