"Everything Was Biting"

That's how Skip Schaible described his day on the water today, and from the look of the following photos he emailed me of his outing, I'd have to agree.

It doesn't take long to spot several bass, a white perch, a bluegill, and a grindle. As he explained and as seen in these photos, the fish were hitting a variety of lures, starting with a topwater--Baby Torpedo, to be exact. "The huge cloud (but only with a few drops of rain) that hung around until about 12 sure helped the topwater bite," said Skip. "It was a blast--they hit with a vengeance," he added. The topwater bite continued even after the cloud disappeared, but the fish also started hitting crankbaits and Senkos.

Skip went on to say that he caught more fish than what is pictured here. Some also jumped off at the boat. "All in all, though," he concluded, "it was a super day."
