Summary: LUMS SP is always a fun place to fish.  Whether catching a huge catfish, pickeral, or enormous size BASS, it always proves to be a decent fishery. With the rain and Post frontal weather conditions rolling through Friday night into Saturday, we knew it may be a little tough but with the size of Bass caught the previous week at a different LUMS SP Event, we knew the Big Girls were there.  The bite was pretty strong earlier on where some had limits by 7am.  For others, between the cookie cutter size bass and catching a keeper prooved tedious.  Even with the cold front pushing through, anglers still were catching them.  The water temps seemed pretty balanced throughout.

 
This week we had 20 Bass weighed in.  These bass weighed in at 41.11lbs.  This gave way to a 2.06lb. avg.  8 out of 8 anglers caught at least 1 Bass. We had 5 anglers catch their 3 Bass limit. 



Congrats to Jiggen Den, Pete Ingemi, Bill Leach, Andy Trapani, and BN06 on your performances.   

Next up is NORTH EAST RIVER, MD out of Anchor Marine in 1.5 weeks.

Tightlines,
BN06
