Grand Lake: Bass Fishing

Well now its about time. You can still put in the work and reap the rewards.This year me and Neil Holley are fishing the Nichols Marine Team Trail . There are four regular tournaments with a end of the year champion ship. We were blessed with a fourth place finish the first tourny of the year. We also took big bass honors with a 7.31 largemouth that Neil tricked into biting a jig.That Neil is one heck of jig man and a super all around angler.I`m looking forward to fishing with him this year. We used to fish team tournys back in the day . We always held our own back then . But God and family come first fishing second, work is in there somewhere to but only when your out of boat gas.So here 20yrs later we are back at it again. I think us old farts can still bring em in.Any way here is a little report on whats going on.The bass are coming up from their winter haunts. In some parts of the lake some are starting to spawn . In other parts they are really wanting to. I would say on this next moon it will be on. But really now are they not always getting it on in April s Moon Phase in Oklahoma? Well sure some years are different then others. But for this year I would say it is right on time.We caught our fish the old fashion way fishing shallow water close to the spawning flats. Jigs and plastics. Here are the pics ands results from the first tourny. April 10 2011
Thanks to all give us a call or email. Bye for now. Bill
