Patterson Smackdown
 

Bassassasin and I hit Patterson yesterday morning in my bass boat. Largemouth bite was slow in the AM but we managed to pick up a couple nice stripers near the bridge. the Bite finally heated up around 1pm with Largemouth Bass, Spotted bass, Sac-a-lait, white bass, and stripers hammering big balls of shad. The birds were working and the bite was on, first time to ever see birds working in fresh water. The fish schooled from 1pm till we left em at 3:30. Pearl white fluke (dead fall) did the trick on the largemouth.....cranks and swimbaits did the trick on the stripers. One of the most fun days I have had in freshwater in sometime. Stripers were between 4-7 lbs and bass were from 2-4 lbs

Great day fishing with friends

looks like a blast. bet those stripers were hammering those swim baits and cranks!!! good fighting fish!

nice catch. You a brave (or single) dude to put them fish in the sink !!!

Nice ! Stripers can give a good fight !

I ask him if his wife would care and he said " I plan on cleaning it well enough so she doesn't know" haha

Here is that big sac I caught on the crank

Love eatin them Basses.

Looks like a great day in Bayou Teche. One of my favorite places to fish. Growing up in Patterson i spent a lot of time in that water. Caught many fish around the old bridge and old landing. Nice report.

that was a beast

Man, Havent fished there in a few years, caught some nice sacalait around the bridge,kinda on accident. I was hiding out from the rain one day,and found em. Never have caught any stripers though. Nice haul!!!
