The post Big bass makes big splash for Louisiana angler appeared first on Louisiana Sportsman. About 7 or 7:30 a.m., it turned pretty, and it wound up being the most nerve-wracking Sunday I’ve ever had.”
When I woke up in the morning, it was raining cats and dogs. I was planning on a little ‘weather defense’ on Sunday. “My family came in, and I spent Sunday with my family,” he said. He got the big fish weighed, measured, certified for the Toledo Bend Lunker Program, and he sat back to wait out the weekend and see if his personal-best largemouth held up as the tournament’s best. She was finished spawning her tail was clean, but she had a lot of damage to her face - she was blind in one eye.”Ĭooper, who was fishing by himself, took the big fish to Cypress Bend Park, where he was camping for the weekend. I put her right in the (livewell) because I was afraid I was going to drop her. “Once I had her in the boat, I knew I had a heckuva chance (to win). I got her to the boat and belly grabbed her. She surfaced twice, came to the boat, then took me under the boat three times to try and break me off. “Once she shot to the surface, I knew she was a big one, and that got me pretty fired up. When I picked up the slack, it felt spongy, so I set the hook and she immediately came to the surface to let me know it was her. “I lost a fish on my first cast, and I threw back in and she took hold of it,” he said. She came from 15 feet of water, out in front of some docks.”Ĭooper was fishing a V&M Wild Thang, an 8½-inch plastic worm, in blue flex, on an 7-foot-3, medium-heavy baitcasting rod mated with a Lew’s reel spooled with 17-pound fluorocarbon. I knew there were some (brush) tops around. And I didn’t see any shad popping up on the bank, so I was fishing offshore.
“But most of them were shallow, and I noticed a lot of baitfish, shad and bream, out in deep water. “I milled around a little, starting shallow, looking for the shad spawn, and there were a lot of boats around me I don’t know if the other boats were trying to take advantage of the shad spawn or hiding from the wind,” he said.

“Lines in was at 6 a.m., and I didn’t catch her until between 6:30 and 6:45,” said Cooper, who won $5,000 for catching the biggest bass of the tournament’s first hour, another $5,000 over the tournament’s overall big fish, plus the boat and truck. His fish was also the first entry in the Toledo Bend Lunker Program’s 2022-2023 season. His second cast, on the first spot he fished May 20, produced a 10.41-pound lunker - he called her a “warhorse” - that wound up winning the 3-day Big Bass Splash on Toledo Bend Reservoir, good for $10,000, a fully rigged Phoenix boat and a Dodge pickup truck.
