Lake Jackson
Water: WAAAAYYYY Down
Wind: raging out of the south
Temp: 70's
Hunter and I wanted to do some bassin' on the first day of winter. It just felt like it, warm, humid wind howling, foggy. Yep, that's winter.
I heard from my friend that they were catching some nice bass IF you could get your boat in at Lake Jackson. We took a chance, and after some maneuvering around the boat ramp, we got the tin Nan in the lake.
We just put the trolling motor down and started slingin' and bringing' a Chatterbait, a Zoom Ultra Vibe and a Skinny Dipper throughout the weeds and coots on Lake Jackson.
Soon Hunter said he missed one and then I got in the action with a jack pike on the Chatterbait.
Then Hunter caught a nice little bass and then followed up with this nice fish.
We caught a few more smaller bass and then I connected on this 2 and half pounder.
The bite was consistent in the wind and fog. I missed a really nice fish on the chatter bait and then set the hook on this really nice fish, tipping the scales at 5 1/2 lbs.
After some creative boat loading skills, we headed home happy bassers.
