Thanksgiving week fishing

Well, I was fortunate enough to get quite a bit of fishing in during the week of Thanksgiving. I started the weekend off in Austin and ended up in Gilmer. With casts in Tarrant and Wood counties in between. I threw big Swimbaits the majority of the time and didn't get a ton of bites. But I learned a bunch about how to fish these baits that will benefit me moving forward. My best day for numbers was my last day in Austin, but no real good ones. I fished all day in the rain one day for 2 fish. But one was worth it to me. Here are some pics. Not all are fish, but that's part of it too in my opinion......

Very nice! How big is that big one? Couldn't see the board

Nice glad to see someone had time to tear them up last week. I haven't been out in almost 3 weeks. Sweet pics...it's sad seeing the lakes so low

Biggest one was 24. Almost exactly 8 lbs. Almost as impressive is the couple of 12-14 inchers that jumped on a 10" wakebait. Very ambitious fish

Sticking with those big swim baits is paying off for you. Thanks for the Pics and write up.

Some great photos there. Looks like you had a very nice Thanksgiving week.

Nice job Michael and great pics!

Nice fish. Good job.

Really nice pictures Michael.

nice report thanks for sharing that bass was a pig for sure

Looks like a good time Michael congrats

Awesome pics and writeup Michael. It's nice to see those big baits paying off, I know it can be a test to keep throwing them.

Nice fish and cool photos!

nice catch
