tjhunt2 Report post Posted March 29, 2012 Well, after 7 days on Roosevelt and staying home one day I couldn't take it. Up at 2:30am, worked 8hrs and came home and headed for Saguaro Lake with to good friends Ted Bounds & Mark Hullinger. We got on the lake by 3:00pm and I caught this bass off a bed after 2 minutes of fishing and thought game on for us. Well, wouldn't you know it, the wind came up and the bed fishing was done for the rest of the day. We did manage a few bluegills but that's it. Here's the only bass. If the winds stay calm now is the time to hit this lake. Some big fish were on beds but we just couldn't pull it together today. Any drop shot jig in white maybe the best but I caught this one in brown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tjhunt2 Report post Posted March 29, 2012 Why you sight fishing? That is like spot lighting big game during the rut!!!! It's not as easy as you think. The conditions have to be perfect for ya to pull it off. Spot lighting big game doesn't hurt them it's what you do afterwards that might caus a problem for them. By the way, that fish was released right after the picture was taken. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tjhunt2 Report post Posted April 1, 2012 It made for a long day but life is to short to sit around and wish we were fishing somewhere. Just go do it while you can because tomorrow just might bring a road block of some kind. TJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
