Watatic Weekend
A weekend away means dad will play! Many short (1-2 hour) trips over the weekend out at Watatic in Ashburnham. Shoving off from our camp, I was making trips all around the lake with different groupings of visitors (my kids, my father, my brother, my sister and her b/f, amongst others). It was a fantastic weekend, including a 1 hour trip on Friday night that boated 7 bass in about 50 mins.
There were some pretty good ones boated, too.

- # of Fish Caught: 6
- Water Type: freshwater
- Type of Fish: Largemouth Bass

South Island Catch
- # of Fish Caught: 4
- Water Type: freshwater
- Type of Fish: Largemouth Bass
- Bait Type: Worm Check Prices
- Bait Details: Black or Brown with Chartreuse tail
- Location Details: This is always a hot spot, all around the island is fantastic coverage. It was tough to fish this weekend because of the number of jet skis and ski boats out on the lake. That, coupled with a fairly stiff breeze yesterday made positioning nearly impossible.
Big Billy's House Catch
- # of Fish Caught: 6
- Water Type: freshwater
- Type of Fish: Largemouth Bass
- Bait Type: Worm Check Prices
- Bait Details: Black or Brown body with Chartreuse tail
- Location Details: This cove is an amazing bass hideout. Just one look as we approached and I knew we'd be in good shape. Trees down on both sides, rocky protrusions, and some stump coverage too. This is where we landed the big boys of the weekend.
