Chugger Spook YBS

May is going to be over before I know it. I went fishing for only one hour early in the morning to catch the last bass of this month.

I started with Heddon Big Bud and Dalton Twist, but soon changed to Chugger Spook (YBS, yellow with black spots), which I sharpened hooks of. I like these Chugger Spooks manufactured in the early production era very much, because their buoyancy is a little different from later ones. Anyway, I could caught a bass (not so big) with the YBS Chugger Spook, and I'm satisfied with the result. Now, I'm in rush to go on a business trip...

 

Today's tackle: ABU Ambassadeur 5500C (BLK),Phillipson Pacemaker PC-56, Daiwa Sight Surf, Heddon Big Bud, Dalton Twist, Chugger Spook, Lucky 13, etc.

Heddon SOS

I took a makeup day off today, and went fishing. I headed down southern area of our prefecture, about one-hour drive from here. I expected a good fishing, but as usual reality was much worse than expectation. While I fished from the dawn until the noon, in a total of 5-6 ponds, I got only two small bites and caught only one bass with an old Heddon SOS (wood prop bait). It was a nice fat bass, but I wanted to catch a couple of more...

New era fish

It's the first day of the new Imperial era of Japan today. A cold front passed through our area yesterday and kept raining through the night. I almost gave up going fishing when I woke up, but I had a second thought that the storm may have activated big bass.

The result was awesome. I got skunked in the first pond, and got a couple of SMALL ones in the second one. Anyway, they were new-era fish for me, and it was much better to go out for fishing than to stay home or to go to work.

Today's tackle: ABU Ambassadeur 5500CA, Fenwick Iron Hawk 62CLJ, Daiwa sight Surf #5, Dalton Twist, Heddon SOS, 210, Chugger Spook, Wounded Spook, Pico Pop, etc.
