Hello everyone. I'm a new user and have been waiting for about a week for my account to be activated (not a complaint...I've just been chomping at the bit to log in and chat). Anyway, I've fished all my life but am relatively new to bass fishing and just bought my first boat in July. I've been out a bunch to Moodus, Batterson, and Crystal Lake and have caught a few decent fish at all three. Yesterday I hit Rainbow Reservoir for the first time and had a ball. I caught 5. 4 LMB and a smallie. The smallie was probably about a pound, and the four largemouth were between 1.5 and 4Lbs. It was a great day, and I wish I fished more, but I was really there to try to put another hour or two on my motor to get it broken in. All fish were found around laydowns in varying depths. Caught the smallie flipping a submerged tree with a Reaction Innovations Sweat Beaver. He nailed it about 3 feet down. First largemouth came the same way on the same structure. Depth was 18-20 feet, but the fish were suspended up high. Last three LMB came from another laydown spanning the bank to 14'. Caught two on a Senko, one weigted, one not, and the other was on a Reaction Innovations Flirt worm rigged for shallow dropshot (but it was taken before it got to the bottom, so I think that one would have hit anything).
