Glad u liked the bass. Illinois is known for big bucks not really big bass but I managed to find a few each year. I ended up catching this 7lb pictured below, a couple of 6lb, and a 4lb, plus 2 catfish that were over 25lbs - all in one day!!!
Man I hope kcison has a good hunt this weekend. Can't wait to hear from him.
Sorry to hear about you losing your dog bro. I know it sucks. I had to put a good hunting dog down last year.
