Great Falcon experience ... 2 DDs and my top 6 bass ever! - 02/02/12 12:26 PM
My wife and I had the great pleasure of fishing with Rick Collis Monday and Tuesday of this week, on our first trip to Falcon. I caught two Double Digit bass (a 10-6 and a 10-8), my first ever. The trip produced the 6 largest bass I've ever caught in over 50 years of bass fishing:
10-8
10-6
9-12
9-0
8-12
8-8
5 of those came on Tuesday afternoon. And, we got to watch one huge bass (certainly over 13 lbs) wallow on the top, spitting my worm back at me. I can't wait to get back on that lake!!!!!
I'd love to post some pics, if anyone can help me out. If I could email the pics, could someone post them for me?
Thanks!!

Wow! What a stringer! I am leaving tomorrow afternoon, driving all night to fish Sat/Sun and 1/2 day Monday. Half of what you caught would be a trip of a lifetime for me!

Rick's really a pro with that thing. I bought myself a new Bass Cat Cougar a few months ago. I can't await to take it out on Falcon!

Wow, congrats!
I'm heading down Saturday and I have a hunch it's going to be on if the weather reports hold out. Looks like a cold fronts coming through in the afternoon and i bet the fish will be mean in front of it -- at least I hope.
Again, great trip! It looks like you were off of the banks. Can you share what patterns were working?

We fished with Rick Collis, who usually guides on Fork. It was my second trip with Rick; the first was an outstanding couple of days on Fork late last June. He guides on Falcon for two weeks each Summer and two weeks each Winter. He really put us on the fish. Tuesday I caught over 60 bass, most all of them were over 5#. It was just stupid. LOL

I'd have to say that right now Falcon has to be the best largemouth lake in the U.S.
