i was thrilled to catch a 5.8 this evening on my favorite laydown.
beautiful fish w/o a mark on it.\
green/orange bitsy bug w/ a green/ pepper fleck superchunk as a trailer.
i pulled the bitsy w/ the trick worm -no dice
next a senko knockoff-no dice
went to the superchunk and hit mama on the first cast into the same hole.
i caught other nice fish as well.
the strike king senko knockoff catches bass- i am getting more confidence in it. I wish walmart carried more colors
i had a 5 fish limit in the 12# range
all my good fish were tight on wood in 4' or more of water

Good fishing big Jeffie! A couple humble suggestions for you my friend, double-spaced as you like it:
1) tacklewarehouse.com-they have just about every lure imaginable in every size and configuration. Each bait has a close-up photo of every
available color so you can see exactly what you're buying. Free shipping on orders over $50.
2) Dude, get a camera phone. They're free these days with just about any plan. Or at least keep a disposable Funsaver in your car or something.
Comes in handy not only for documenting 5lbers, but also when being involved in certain situations that are not easily resolved in a verbal manner.
Like when you're in a fender-bender with non-English speaking peoples, or when you're trying to explain to your girlfriend how to hook up the
cable box. I prefer the cameraphone so I don't fell like I'm jinxing myself when I bring it along everytime.

the strike king senko:
the color walmart carries has been my top producer this week- just a funny coincidence
like a purple and black
i hear what you are saying on the camera, mike.
i had one in my pocket when i caught the fish
i weighed it and watched it swim away
i fish alone 99% of the time
a big fish alone in a picture frame doesnt look like much.
if i ever get money again, i will order from internet suppliers.
i piecemeal tackle from local retailers just because it is what i do.
i have ways that i cling to, for reasons that are not apparent even to myself
thanks for noting the post. it was my best day in some time

Jeffie, you have been hitting that lake hard this weekend. I see you every time I drive by. You earned that fish for sure.
I will say that a picture of a big bucket mouth is a lot more impressive than just a number, but it is your report do what you want.
*Of course that's coming from a guy who posted a picture of a cedar shingle to show the size of a small mouth bass
