headwaters bass

It’s been a rough two weeks for me lately. It started out the morning I met up with my friend John at Headwaters as our usual outing together. After prepping the boat loading my gear into it, I hopped back into my truck to move to a parking spot when I noticed my check engine light was on. The bite was still so-so and the main lure once again was the Bubble Gum trick worm. We managed 15 fish and were off the water by 11.

I then headed home and parked the truck until my appointment at the dealership to see what my problem was. After a few days there I received my truck back and my wallet was much lighter, to say the least. The next morning having plans to get ready for the days ahead I woke up with Vertigo. I am still feeling some effects as I’m writing this report, but at least I’m not holding my hallway walls to walk around the house.

I did manage to fish with my friend John this past Friday at Headwaters and at least feel some wind in my face. We managed 13 bass in a hot 88 degree water temperature by the end of the day. I’m ready for some cooler temperatures but not too cold. It’s getting closer as my Crepe Myrtle trees are starting to drop some leaves. With all the rain we have been getting, it’s setting up, I believe, to be a great spawning time on our lakes with lots of shallow areas to bed in.
