THE BASS COLLEGE

went to the nanticoke river yesterday, (my favorite fishery) and it was on, caught about 15 keepers, biggest being 3 pounds, all on a spro lil john crankbait in citrus shad color, on laydowns and dock pilings, caught them in the very back of broad creek on laydowns, and on the main river up near seaford on some long docks, bigger ones seemed to be on the docks in the main river, water temp was 63 in back of broad creek and 68 out on the main river, fish were very skinny, you would think they would be getting fatter trying to feed up, but i dont know, i cant read a bass's mind lol, oh and also caught a few nice size stripers, it was fun!

Thats great! Good day Thanks for puting this up Get some pictures for us or better yet video!! 

will do!!, the ride from seaford to the back of broad creek wasent fun in this weather! lol, i think nextime  i should launch at phillips landing

Yep. 

i dont know what it was, but there was a fairly big tournament going on, i think it was just a club tournament though

sounds like a good day

Have any of you guys used the new boat ramp on the upper Broad Creek in Laurel?

No Tell me what that is like when you get a chance.

i havent, but bass like to stack up in that early in the day in the summer time lol, but it looks like a really nice ramp! i hear its not the greatest area though.

Yeah, that would be my concern.  But it would sure be a long ride from Phillips landing with a 14' Tadpole and a 15hp outboard!  You can see the ramp pretty well on Google maps (zoom way in).  It looks like a nice facility, with a dock (floating?) for easy solo loading and unloading.  Hopefully I'll get down there within the next few weeks.
