I have been talking about the first wave of big pre- spawn females that move in at this time every year and today we caught the first one of the fall! I fished with Eric Rubin and Irving Leibowitz from Brookklyn NY today we caught 27 bass. This big 9 pound female ate the last shiner we had, and Lee did a great job landing her! We caught about equal numbers of fish on shiners and artificial baits. This big bass is just the tip of the iceberg many others will follow her, and we are going to be there to catch them!
