2-3-12 My Biggest Bass!

Tyler was out fishing after school (as usual) and I finally got a chance to go with him.  Went to one of the ponds with my brand new Falcon BuCoo spinning rod (7' med/fast) and a Black/Blue/Brown jig (Curly's recommendation).  Tyler was catching a couple (12 inchers).  My 3rd or 4th cast I got hit with a nice heavy pressure, set the hook and realized this wasn't just another 1 lber.  Got this nice fat healthy 5 lber.  It may not be a giant compared to what others have caught, but it is my biggest LMB ever and I am celebrating with a beer right now and a huge smile on my face!!  See pics below.

20 inches.  She has this large black spot on his left gill.  It isn't a leaf or dirt.  Good way to track who catches her next.

Cleaned up nicely now! big_smile  There would be 10-15 "guests" all over that spot.........the next nice day we have.  You'll notice that I do not post what lakes I'm catching these 3-4 pound bass in recently..............or let the pic give it away.  Too many guests/non-residents (lurkers) on this board looking for easy pickins tongue


Hell or High Water...........I'm Fishin!!   big_smile
