Quote:My twin threw a buzzbait and got a few hits but no hook ups. It was in shallow water as well.
I had 3 misses on the buzzbait that same night I lost that big girl. Two seemed pretty standard and the other made this deep thunk sound when it's mouth cupped the surface. It sounded pretty big. Oddly enough the next night I went back and not a hit. I really need to get a canoe so that I can explore all those backwaters.
On a side note, with all this talk of large panfish, I caught a perch today that was 1.5" short of the Idaho record.[inline "giant perch small.JPG"]
