33 small mouth bass today (photos)

[ExBassGuide]

Fished the river from my pontoon boat and got 33 bass. Next week I am hoping for over 100 bass from the river.
The bite was light and I needed to shake only once or twice and let the bait sit there. Got lots of bass dead sticking. I even moved to 4 pound test to get more bites and did not break any off. Got my 1st bass of the year! I'm gunning for over 800 this year. Dont ask about the location it is top secret! found this spot last year. water is about 53 deg. and the bass are in 4 -7 feet of water.
Thanks!

Roger, it looks like you need to update your totals...

Great day Roger, sounds like you got into them good! I have never heard of going to 4lb test for smallys, i cant imagine the water conditions waranted it? If you were dropp shotting, or shaky head fishing, 6 -8 will work fine everytime! Dont wanna give them gold ones any more then you have to, they will break you off everytime~! Congrats on the great fishing!

I just could not get them to hit my bait with heavier line. They liked it slow and life like. I would rather use 8 pound test but the conditions would not let me. I got three bass on 8 pound test and the rest of 4 pound test.
We will get several days of sun this week and I can switch to 8 pound test, I hope. I had 4 pound test on my ultra light rod and I got most of the bass using it.

I went out and tried Hebb Park and then moved to Willamette park, skunked at both. ;/ 5th time in a row so far going out. Gotta get myself an 09'er!

Very nice job though Roger, and I'm glad you managed to pull in today... more fish than I did last year.

that last fish looks like a real dandy, way to get out and slay some smallies!!

[Tar Heel]

You sure you din't catch one fish 33 times? Good thing you practice C&R!

[ExBassGuide]

If I got the same fish a few times they all count at one more fish landed each time. I have got the same small mouth two times in a day several times. but never 33 times in a day.
