The magic rocks of Lake Erie
Hit the southern shore of Erie. Initially struggled to find post spawn fish that were willing to bite. Came upon a group of rocks sticking out of the water that had an Egret parked on them and eating baitfish. Picked up on the clue and started to work swimbaits and crankbaits around those rocks and had a great day of fishing. Tag along and check it out. Link to the crankbait that caught them in this video. https://amzn.to/3SUy7vb

Massive Spider Visits While Bass Fishing West Harbor of Lake Erie
One of the largest spiders I've seen in northwest Ohio. Have you ever had a creepy crawler crawling all over you, and you didn't even know it? This fishing trip had an unexpected visitor who thought it was a good idea to crawl across my hat, ear, and eyebrow! Fishing West Harbor of Lake Erie can produce mixed results. There are days when you have to go through a wide variety of lures to get the bites. This was one of those particular days where the bite was tough. I rotated through enough lures and areas to put together a decent fishing day on the lake. Come along bass fishing with R & J Bass Fishing on Rumble.

Kent Lake Michigan Bass Fishing Ice Out
First trip of 2023 was to Kent Lake. Water levels were down 3 feet which made launching the boat difficult. The air temperature in the morning was 28 degrees and water surface temperature were still upper 30's. The conditions certainly made for a challenging day of fishing. Jim and Rick were able to find a couple lures and a simple color change that helped put some early fish in the boat. Come along for a day on the lake with R & J Bass Fishing.

R & J Bass Fishing Thoughts on New Boat
Thoughts on the Bass Tracker 2023 model and first impression. We were looking for ways to save money on fuel and get a new piece of equipment in the process. The Bass Tracker 2023 model seemed like the best fit for price value. Decked it out for fishing where it's still a good boat if we decided to jump in a tournament, but made more for our fun fishing and traveling style. The first trip out, the fuel savings from towing it and the difference in fuel consumption between the 2 stroke Yamaha 225 and the Mercury Pro 115 four stroke was huge! The boat is decked out with minn kota ultrex 80 with spot lock, two humminbird helix 12 units. 360 in the bow and side imaging on the back, and the transferred Garmin 93 SV with forward facing sonar that came from the prior Ranger. The boat should provide many years of good fishing for R & J Bass Fishing and the grandkids as well.
