Baseball tournament was cancalled today due to rain. When I heard the forecast, I was tempted to not do much. I couldn't get that other day out of my mind and the amount of large fish I hooked. That was enough to push me over the edge.

1st fish of the day, jig and pig Black/Red Booyah. 6.61 pounds.

nice healthy looking fish..congrats.

Hey guys, me and my nephew went this evening and caught a few nice fish, he fished for brim and such and i threw some bigger stuff, caught a big girl surrounding the nest, she weighed in at 5.9 pounds and 22 1/2 inches long, i have pics that i will post on this same thread and the date and weight will be on the pic.

Nice Fish Lance. How do you know she was guarding a nest?

Looks like a beautiful little honey hole.

My pre-spawn/spawn should really be heating up the next few weeks. I can't wait, classes end this Friday and I will have some more time on my hands to chase some pigs.

well i watched her for a while swimming back and forth around a spot in the water that looked to be her nest, the spot was kinda dug out a little bit and she stayed around that general area.

Congrats guys! Nice looking fish!

Problem fixed....

18 inch Smallmouth, 3.81 lbs


17 inch Smallmouth, 2.90 lbs

Good looking bass Chuck, congrats on another 5+ lber. The fish in your area sure have a nice coloring to them, almost an emerald green.

thanks a lot
