congrats man! here's hopin' '08 brings ya plenty more.

great job buddy! i "only" caught 4 bass today and they didn't weigh 13.5 put together. lookin' forward to more.

real nice. good catchin' man!

congrats! nice fish and a really nice looking bait. i'm gonna check out that mattlures website. i gotta start fishin' swimbaits some.

nice!

great job man. glad ya caught some.

those are awesome craig! great job man! it's january and you're wearing short sleeves? the grass, plants, and trees are all green? how warm is it there? i thought it got fairly cold in oklahoma in the winter. maybe i was wrong. anyway, great fish and congratulations big time!!!

i am gonna try something new this winter in an effort to put a big fish in the boat, but i thought i'd run it by y'all first. i would be interested to know if anyone out there has had any success at all (particularly with lunkers) fishing BIG (10"+) t-rigged plastics in 35-45 degree water. typically for me this has always been the domain of ol' reliable - the jig. i have had success with plastics before, but they have always been tubes or creature baits in the 4-6" variety. anxious to hear. thanks.

SON!!! IT'S A GIANT, IT'S A GIANT. YES!!! I GOT 'ER. NOW THAT IS A TROPHY, TROPHY BASS RIGHT THERE BOYS. SO COME ON TO LAKE OKECHOBEE AND MAYBE YOU CAN GET A MONSTER LIKE THIS TOO. WELL THAT'S ALL THE TIME WE HAVE FOLKS. WE'LL SEE YA NEXT WEEK. WHAT A FISH............ he's the great american fisherman. he'll fish anywhere........................... ;D i agree with avid. no substitute for a good scale. seems like the minute folks find out someone guessed or estimated the weight of a fish, they lose all credibility no matter whether they were close or not. there is even a disclaimer on the weight calculator above. but based on comparisons of various "weight formulas" to actual readings on my digital scale, i'd have to say that length x length x girth / 1200 is the most acurate one i've found. but i hate math. it's just easier to buy a scale. ;D

congrats buddy! that's a dandy for sure. another biggun' falls prey to the jig. rock on man.

there will be more, trust me. hopefully a LOT more for ya. congrats!

hey, still not bad though man. as far as those ya missed, well i'm sure you'll get 'em next time.

nice trip man! glad y'all caught some. sounded like y'all had pretty steady action.

man that's incredible. great job. 3 over six is cool anytime, but in dec.? wow!!! that's some great spot you got there.

way to go man. at least you were out catchin' somethin'. topwater in dec. - unbelievable. congrats.

too bad about the camera. but congrats to you and taylor. i bet you'll get a chance for a do-over soon. guarantee ya she's still thrilled, pix or not. Lord willin', 10 years from now, it'll be the time with you she'll remember and cherish - not pix or lack of. way to go man.

good catchin' man. sorry about your flu.

another great day in short-sleeve country. those pix were great!!! thanks for sharing.

2 things to try. if you or a buddy has photo editing software, it should be pretty easy to resize. if not just open up a photobucket account. it's a free image hosting site and you can resize 'em on there. you can even put your own album on there and and share it with us so we can be jealous of even more of your fish. photobucket.com good luck.

excellent!!! way to go man. congrats on your hawgs.

welcome! you'll like it here.

sweet!!! sounds like a great day weather-wise and bass-wise too. way to whack 'em!

great job man. your bait was slow but sounds like the action was fast. way to stay on 'em.

toad!!! great job man. was that taken in front of lloyd auditorium or was it one of the dorms? i can tell it's somewhere on campus but i can't tell where. awesome pic and fish.

pig!!! great job man!
