Piney-Z Pre Spring Spawn Bass

Took a ride over to Piney-Z, lugged the Gheenoe by hand down to the launch. Headed out as the sun was coming up. Worked topwater baits, a few casts in boated a nice 4.5lb bass. Caught a few more on top water until the sun came up when we switched to senko style paddle tail worms rigged weedless. Ended up catching around 15 bass averaging around 3lbs each. Great day on the water.

Febuary Bass Fishing in Northwest Florida In the Gheenoe

Woke up today at 6:30am and headed to Piney-Z Lake with Alain of SoFlo Bass Fishing http://www.youtube.com/user/soflobassfishing. It is a small lake that was once part of the larger Lake Lafayette . It was dammed up during the late 1940's when the owners created a farm pond out of park of Lake Lafayette creating Piney-Z. It has been stocked by the Florida fish and wildlife conservation, who has created a diverse ecological system. The lake is a no internal combustion motor zone, so we took only the trolling motor topping the Gheenoe out at around 5mph. We ended up seeing large grass carp, large alligator gar, as well as catching large mouth bass.  We ended up catching most of the bass on Senko worms worked weedless. Here are the pictures from the day.
