Crankbait This Round

Went with a Crankbait this round.  Caught one Bass and missed another, else it was slow go. Better to stick with Inline Spinners right now to mimic the baitfish the Bass are feeding on. Still a fun time, especially with the cooler temps!

Bethany This Round - 3 Bass, 1 White Bass, and a Catfish

Went back out to fish this Thanksgiving!.  Went to Bethany this time; had fun earlier this morning catching Bass at Plano East Senior High School. Hoping for more fun - caught three Bass, one White Bass, and a Catfish on a Rip and Rap Rapala.  Really like crankbaits this time of year; less vegetation to foul hooks and can cover more area quickly when short on time!

More Fishing with a Crankbait This Cold Morning

Cannot help but fish again this morning.  Braved the cold temps and fished the same crankbait (Rapala Clack and Rap) we used yesterday at Plano East Senior High School.  This time went to Stoney Hollow Park in Plano.  Had not fished it in awhile.  Glad to see the Bass were biting somewhat.  Lucked out with four Bass this round; all struck near the weed line that parallels the bank.

Missed a Fish, Missed a Catfish,... Caught a Bass

Quick trip to Bethany this evening.  Grabbed the first rod that was rigged and ran out the door... turned out the first rod we grabbed was the Baitcasting Rod that had the Crankbait we like.  Fished for about 45 minutes.  Had a strike but lost it soon after setting the hook, not sure what it was but we suspect it was a Bass.  Then, had a Catfish chase the lure; even got some video of it!  Looked like a Bruiser.  Finally, hooked and landed a Bass, then soon after called it a trip!
