I haven't had much of a chance to get out on the water lately due to the fact that I am back in school. Today, however, I made some time to go find some hungry fall bass, and I wasn't disappointed! I caught 4 nice ones in a couple of hours on this gorgeous sunny day in late September. The first one was the biggest of the day. It was quite feisty and even pulled my kayak upstream! I didn't get a chance to get that fight on video though. I had just left shore and had paddled for less than 5 minutes when it hammered my spinnerbait. I was heading to my favourite fishing spot, so I hadn't even had time to install my hatcam. Anyway, I got a nice shot of it and a short video after I got it in the kayak. Hopefully I'll be able to get back out on the water again soon!
