First Hudd Fish!!! 2024


fishing user avatarGrizzn N Bassin reply : 

So as a lot of you guys know I'm getting into swim baits this year. Went out this morning around 10.30 tied on a 6 inch rof12 huddleston (Rainbow trout). So i lube it up with some pro-sure (Rainbow trout scent),  tie it up was making sure my reel was set right . Then i cast about 30 feet i didn't want to launch my hudd off on the first cast. I was standing further back being very careful. Also having my polarized glasses on , im working in the hudd just looking at the swimming action on the way back to me. The water was very clear about 5 feet in front of me i see this hawg of bass come up and slamm my hudd!!!!! i was kind of in shock i saw her turn her head back and i set that hook! Got her right on the roof of her mouth. I weighed it and hit the scale at 6.525 lbs. Not to shabby for my first fish of the year ,and  my first hudd fish on my first cast!. Water temp is still very cold!

Very nice! Sure is a great boost of confidence to start off fishing a new lure like that.

Don't look to me for Help -

The total weight of the baits brought each trip must exceed my body weight.

My frogging is going pretty good my friend. So far this year, I am over 250 bass caught on Mr. Froggy alone. This year for me surprisingly is the year of the spinnerbait. I have really gotten into it and have caught several nice bass. Good luck with your season. You have gotten off to a great start.

fishing user avatarTeal reply : 

Have fun with that. I catch a few big swimbait fish on a magical day when the stars line up and then for the next few weeks I'm spending excessive amounts of time swimbaiting and foregoing other techniques and spending money on swimbaits and more gwar to toss them on. It takes q few skunk days to bring me back down to earth.


fishing user avatarMccallister25 reply : 

Thats nice. Id like to get into swimbait fishing.


fishing user avatarmnbassman23 reply : 

Nice fish dude! Glad it all came together right away to boost that confidence level. Keep on chuckin


fishing user avatarBluebasser86 reply : 

Nice fish! I wouldn't be shy at all about tossing an 8" Hudd with fish like that around! My first fish on an 8" was about half that size  :eyebrows:

I didn't get to go.  Dad needed help around his place.  He is down in his back so I helped him plant tomato plants, fix a flat on the trailer, and load the trailer with some junk to haul to the dump.  There is a free dump day Saturday.  Anyways, I'll be going rain or shine tomorrow for sure.  Hopefully I'll get bit.  We'll see.
