Well today I had the pleasure of fishing with Brad Smith # 16 Wide Receiver for the NY Jets.
  
The day was perfect and the bass were biting especially in the morning. I headed out to pelican bay were I have been catching some nice bass on top water and worms.
Brad started thing off with a nice 3 lb. Bass on a Gambler 10 ” worm , while I was still waiting for my first bite.

We then moved to the inside where we started throwing plastic top water frog, Flappin’ Shads and skinny dippers. we continued to get action for the next hour .
Then Brad setup on a nice lunker with a worm, only to find out the drag was too loose and just couldn’t get the hook in her. He then came back as he went long to catch, this nice Bass on top.

Big Bass of the day 4 LB.

We were fishing some thick cover so we had lost almost as much as we caught , but never the less had a blast watching the explosions.
If Brad and The Jets continue their success we’ll see them in the Super Bowl , then after the season is over he will be back for some “HAWG’s” during the spawning season in February.  DEC.- March is the best time of the year for Big Bass and of course is my busiest time of the year also.
 
So if you looking to get out of the cold weather and join in on the fun, book your date’s now while they are still available. Good Fishin’ Capt. Frank Carbone 954-325-1115
