Hey OFF,
It has been a while since I have shared anything in terms of bass stories as I have been busy with tournament/prefishing so I can't really share everything. Yesterday I managed to take a good buddy and partner of Live2Fish.ca with me out on Lake Simcoe. At first the game plan was to take my 18.5 ft Princecraft out on the big body of simcoe launching from orillia. Immediately we were onto a few largemouth with spinnerbaits but we did not leave passed the narrows of the Couchaching/Simcoe Narrows. We got out to the big body and saw the storm had created some 4-5 ft rollers and I looked at my buddy and said forget that noise lets go back up to couchaching and see how the fishing is. We searched for smallies from 8am until about 12:30 pm. The bite was off and we said lets grab out frogs/jigs/senkos and head down to cooks bay. We pulled the boat out and went down to the bottom end of simcoe. Lets just say we were once again onto some serious numbers and some decent size. The average of fish was about just shy of 2lbs but we were into about 30 fish. The trick we used that I have no problem sharing as it is no secret, was one of us would use the frog and the other would throw a jig. We had a senko rod ready to go in the middle of us as one of us would miss a fish, immediately my buddy would grab the senko and put it right behind the other persons bait. This was the key to success for us!
Here are some photos!
