Metro West Fishing Report

First Time Out Of The Season

Hooked up with my bud and we hit a metro west pond. When I got to the ramp it was chained, no worries put in at street. Well 30 35 feet of slushy ice was between bank and open water. We did a quick run to another pond which was in worse shape.



We launched off the side of the rd back at pond one and pushed through the slushy ice. Wind was booting pretty good.



We managed a fish each on jerkbaits on a break line not to far off the bank.



Decision was made to make an up wind run to some wood lined areas. So out with the jigs and we picked away at the brush and wood. A drop or two and then I notice I have my pork on upside down to my buds after he had brought aboard a bass. Quick switch around of my pork and that alone upped my confidence as at this point he had bounced a second fish into the boat.



Well I felt some weight and set the hook and scored a 3.2 bass on the jig. Couple casts later on same wood popped a 4.2 on the jig.



Was nice to get out and even better to get a couple of fish. Few wind knots few drag adjustments and scored my first bass of the season on a brand new jerkbait purchased just a few weeks ago.



When we pulled out the boat the ice was all gone up along the bank.


Well hope to get out again soon. Thanks for the trip out Evan.
