FWIW fellas...with an inbound cold front, 15+ winds and fishing until the late afternoon t-storm was on top of us, I went out yesterday and caught my biggest largemouth of the year at just under 3.5 lbs on a #3 Mepps XD in Fire Tiger on my custom Lamiglas XMG50 SJ 781 (extended to 6'9") paired with a current Gen Shimano Twin Power 2000SHG/8lb Sunline Xplasma Asegai braid+12lb fluoro leader.
My fishing buddy and I thought I hooked into a nice hybrid for a bit as this bass ran a good 10-12 yards and stayed down and just shook her head
...it literally took me a few minutes to play and land her, which was a blast!
Caught a few others as well, one on a 3/8 oz Spro Aruku.
@dragon1 indeed. I'm not sure which way things are going here. But I do know participation matters. Things are in a holding pattern it seems, for lack of more apt description. Intriguing to me, and I figure it'll all work given time, but the problem is that time ain't cheap. I'm not quite sure what to think really. Fun post though, thanks
Got into a good bite yesterday on Percy Priest on some hybrids, stripers, white, and yellow bass. Thomas my fishing buddy also caught two stripers in the 7-8 lb range and I also farmed three stripers/hybrid on a 1/2 oz Kastmaster as I couldn't keep the trebles pinned... eventually most of the larger 7-9 lb hybrids came on a 3/16-1/4 jighead and Zoom Fluke Jr. My combo of choice was my 2013 Certate 2510R-PE and Shimano Hard Rocker BB 83MH.
Heavily pressured park ponds put out too. Girlfriend wanted to go on a hike at a park about an hour away, so I grabbed a couple rods because I knew there was a pond there….first one of 2024. Extreme Mission/Tuned Steez = Nice little chunk.

SCHUUUUWWIIIING!
Haven’t been on here much lately but managed to get my first one of the year. Nothing crazy, but one of my favorite smaller creeks to fish at
megabass orochi jadepython slant x luvias 2506 with a pink hazedong on a ryugi vespa head
We’ve missed you, man!
looks like a beautiful little spot, but that combo!….😍🦾🫵🏻🤘🏼

I may be looking at a spinning reel this year
