Default Finally found some bass on percy priest

I went to percy priest with a buddy yesterday got there around five in the morning fished around seven points for a little bit fish were jumping around but not like I have seen before.

Weather was great all day not to hot with a little wind that kept us cooled off there wasn't a lot of boat traffic neither. We fished just about everywhere on that side of the lake I caught twelve bass all ranging from 2-4 pounds on a lizard. I only took pictures of four of them since they were all in about the same range.

I was fishing on the rocks fairly close to the banks but not to close and i was suprised to find them since i dont have a depth finder. They just were smashing that lizard every couple of casts! That's the only lure I used all day and it worked great for me. Can't wait to get out there again!

Thanks everyone for giving me some advice it really helped out!
Here's a couple of photos

I was mostly bouncing it off the rocks that's how I got most of the fish.

Well done! I had a tough time Monday out there but the previous weekend caught several quality sized like you got. So they were shallower huh? Maybe they're not hanging out as deep as I thought they'd be. Typically don't they hang way deep until about October and then move shallow for their Fall feeding pattern?

Man...12 bass in the 2-4 pound range is a fantastic day of fishing!

Those are some nice fish. I fished Monday afternoon for a couple of hours and caught on one fish. I got fed up with the wind and boat traffic, almost got ran over again by a big pleasure boat pulling a tube. I saw some feeding fish but did not catch anything off of them my lone bass came on a d bomb around some stumps.

Tealtree,

First of all; nice bass!

As far as adding more than one pic, see the attached. After clicking on "Manage Attachments", that new window opens where you can browse for and attach up to 5 pics at a time. After you're done browsing for your pics, hit the "upload" button and once all of them show up (all will be listed in that same window), just hit the "Close this window" button, continue with your post and once you hit save, they should show up as multiple attachments.
