South Shore Fishing Report

South Shore HOG Pond

Got out again with Jbiguns. We hit up a SS weed infested pond. Warm with a milky clear sky and 15mph winds SCREAMED swimbaits. Who are we to argue. Waking and cranking Slammers was the ticket today. Joe was throwing the 9" 1x Perch and I was throwing the 7" 2x dark trout. Caught a handfull of 1-2 lb bass early before the wind came up. As soon as it did I got my big fish. 5 3/4 lbs. She crushed it as soon as i started my retrieve. BIG head on her. We went shallow for a while thinking the fish might be under the pads but it was a no go. We were heading back tot he ramp ready to bail for pond #2 Joe was sitting and I stood up and started cranking the slammer. Joe says. Well if you are going to fish... so am I. He made one cast, the rod bent in half and he started to sing "I got lunker, I got lunker" and sure enough he did. but not before it burried him up in the coonage. Thought for sure she was goon either pull off of get off but Joe being the hog hunter that he is, got her free and into the waiting net. She was put on the scale and it was bouncing between 6.15 and 7.1 ended up settling on 7 even. Thats two 7's for Joeybiguns in 3 days. I know for a fact he has a couple of 6's and a 5 too just in this past week. The boy is on FIRE!!! Good job Joe and thanks again for the company. good times!!!
