Has anyone else noticed how late the spawn is this year. I caught 9 keeper bass over the weekend at Lake Fausse Point. Nice bass around 3 to 2 pounds. A bunch of 13 inchers as well. Every one of the keepers had eggs. Caught 5 sac-a-lait as well same thing.. Full of eggs.

Was that you that we all passed in the canal?

I am still sight fishing spawning bass. 15 to 18 feet down in gin clear lakes in southern California. The water temps range between 65 and 75. I was thinking the same thing about how late it was. Last year this time out here I was catching them in summer patterns

i know bro i am from there

i think everything is running late cause of the ongoing cool fronts water temp still a lil cooler than normal this time of year hints the reason late crawfish, shrimp still out in the bays, heck I saw some deer at my camp this past weekend still had horns. they have useually dropped by now at our place

I saw one fannin a bed this weekend, but this cool snap messed em up.

must be just to the west side of the river they still spawning. Fished lake verrette this past sunday and everything was postspawn. Caught between 35-40 little ones and 4 keepers with a 4lb kicker(long and skinny)

My father fished a little club tournament in there this weekend and he told me the same story. Said the keepers they caught were just by luck. He said he probally measured 15 fish that didn't keep

Rayburn and Toledo spawned early, still catching quality fish to this day, weird how it changes so much between lakes

Dubie told me water temp was 70 today on the surface... I think the river rise put a hurtin on them in the basin.

I was catchin fish at the end of Febuary full of eggs as well..


I am goin in the marsh Thursday... If they still full of eggs there it will be late!

Here you go rambeaux. I took this picture with my phone threw the lenses on my costas. It about 10 feet where you see the bottom. It absolutely miserable fishing water this clear.

Damn it where is that??

Lake Dixon in Escondido CA. It's where that guy caught the 25 lb bass he foul hooked so it couldn't be the world record. Also I was still catching the on beds sat.

Yeah they found it dead a year later. That lake still holds quality fish thou. They stock it with rainbow trout about twice a month and re bass just gorge on them. What makes it bad is fishing 6lb test line with drop shot. Also the complete opposite way fishing swimbaits. Neither of which I care about

How big is that lake?

about 75 acres. i was expecting it to be way bigger but it is small. it gets about 80 feet deep thou

Man, thats just a big pond...

our local lake is 15,000 acres.

i know it threw me off the first time i went. All the lakes out here are like that

There where still on the beds in T-bend as of last weekend, they just tell'n everybody its over. Just have to know where to look. Left a 8+ on the bed Sat. that would just not lock on. It's a surface drive dream, them big pretty boat didn't want no part of what we where in, although we had my buddy's 20' Basscat in it, I would have never even put my boat in that, he's gona be wax'n scratch's for a month.

A trip to Taledo Bend is in my near future. I love that place

have fun wit ya perchs

Me and T-Bubba, a football field size patch of grass with a couple scum frogs and a case of beer = Not good for bass
