Congrats on your first Bass ! That's one you'll Never Forget. And btw - that's your PB as well. A-Jay

Good to Know - Hoping to get down there in the next couple of weeks. Waiting for the water temps to drop a bit more. The ones we're looking for routinely come from cooler water. Thanks again. A-Jay

Nice Job ~ Congrats. Two question if you don't mind; At what depth were the bigger fish coming from & what was the surface water temps during your best bites? Thanks in advance A-Jay

Casting distance for my personal bass fishing needs is a result of a balanced & properly tuned set up. If I can't quit reach my target accurately, I'll move the boat closer. On a side note; my last 3 lmb PB's were all less than 15 yards from the boat when they hit. So although long bomb casts are fun, they have yet to help in that area. A-Jay

SSSSHHHhhhhhhhhh . . . . . . . Let's try to keep at least one of these under the radar ~ A-Jay

My "secret weapon" this summer for plus size smallies was a green pumpkin SK Rage Craw on a drop shot. Rigged it up on a 2/0 EWG Gamakatsu hook and 10 lb braid (and 10 mono leader). It was killer ~ Try it. And if the water has any color at all . . . . dip those claws ! A-Jay

And there you go - Six pages in and this still applies. A-Jay

Very Cool ~ The "New Guys" put on a Show ! A-Jay

Hello Turkey sandwich and Welcome to BR ~ A-Jay

btw - when these measurements are placed in the "Fish Weight Calculator" it comes out to 13.70625 lbs. I WISH ~ ! A-Jay

Read & KNOW your state CCW laws. Also, you need to disclose this to your employer that you have a permit and are carrying. It is important to communicate this to your employer because you want to make sure the employer supports this while you're working. The employer's main concern is safety and making sure that you maintain order and control. However, if you are carrying and use your weapon on the job, the employer is going to be liable. Besides, dead patrons are really bad for business. A-Jay

Judge for yourself. This fish was 25 1/2" long and had a 21 1/2" girth - weighed 10.7 lbs on the Accu Cull Digital Scale and had a Spanish Accent. A-Jay

I'd love to see one myself - DD fish from up there are a rare creature for sure and major accomplishment. I grew up in Mass. The first 20 years or so of my angling adventures were all in New England. After joining the service, we moved & fished all over but have always followed the fishing up in the north east. The current Record LMB catches in New England looks like this ~ Maine 11.6 Caught in 1968 NH 10.5 Caught in 1967 Conn 12.875 Caught in 1961 RI 10.3 Caught in 1991 Vermont 10.25 Caught in 1988 and Mass where the record is a whopping 15.5 lb freak of a bass caught in 1975. So it's been at least 20 years since any of these state records have been broken. None in this century - (that sounds weird . . . . .) But if anyone's been on the right kind of fish - It's been YOU.
