It's a bass only smaller ~ And if we're asked to guess the weight, I'm going to dig out my left eye with a ice cream scoop ! A-Jay

Not certain. As for storage space, when you look at the Pro V set up anything that can be used for stoage, is. There's no space left between compartments. But the boat's not 20 ft either. Looks like they're making the most out of what's available. A-Jay

The Lund's going to go 35-40K depending on how it's outfitted - less with less & more loaded up. A-Jay

His only regret was not knowing what regret feels like ~ Perfect A-Jay

Agreed, that is not what we usually hear - I like all that quite a bit myself - totally in my heritage & feels like it's in my DNA. Stay strong - perhaps just a sniff now & then. A-Jay

Only on the High Tide . . A-Jay

As a snack or a pet ? So you're probably not on a gluten-free vegan diet then . . . . A-Jay

Nice bass ~ Might not be 10 pounds. A-Jay

I initially made "The Scale" for ME ! I'm a World Class Big Eye myself. But it quickly became painfully obvious, that this is an affliction that many an angler suffers from so I felt compelled to share. A-Jay

Hang in there Catt ~ A-Jay

Because BTS (before the scale) This bass was "easily well over 5, maybe even close to 6lbs." (see below) Either way - Nice bass Sir A-Jay

How to deal with the wind ? Depends on your approach. Many bass anglers today have adopted the fast paced tournament style of bass angling seen on TV where the trolling motor never goes off, the boat is always moving and rarely is an anchor carried, let alone used. The advent of the newest shallow water anchor systems have helped in some regard but they too have their limitation, mainly depth. I hate saying it this way but, back in the day, anchoring one's boat was the way we fished - windy or not. At least that's how I was taught. Clearly not as convenient as "Spot Lock" or Power Poles - but that's all we had. And we caught fish. Learning to "use" an anchor in 10 - 20 ft of water (or more) takes some time. It's easiest learned in mellow conditions rather than when it's blowing a gale. Knowing how your particular craft rides on the anchor & how to adjust that to best present a bait is a big key to the techniques success. I fish from a canoe. I use an anchor (sometimes two) Every Trip. I fish (and catch) in wind - all the time. I see anglers on the water who don't know how to, don't have one or won't bother to anchor, sit on the leeward side of the lake in the "Pleasant" conditions - not getting bit. At the same time, I'm on the hook, blowing around a little but I'm using the net here & there. If there's a choice (and there almost always is) I ALWAYS fish & do better in some wind. A-Jay

And you're off & running ~ Great Bass Congrats A-Jay

Something else in his favor - I heard that the Denver Team bus has very low ground clearance . . . . Makes it a little tough to throw your teammates under. A-Jay

To be completely fair - I can't remember anyone ever intercepting that clipboard. And all indications are that he hit the dirty laundry basket with that red shirt after every game So his completion percentage there was pretty good. Don't know if any of that will really help him though. A-Jay

Quite a bit of RG3's play looked a lot like Peyton's last season. Not Good. A-Jay

Never heard of that ~ must be some pretty hot oil. A-Jay

You and every single Tournament & Recreational Bass Angler on the Planet . . . There are tons of theories, load of conjecture, plenty of notions most founded on probabilities without any demonstration of their truth. In other words, if you ever find out, you'll be the first. A-Jay

Nice job ~ Again And if you haven't already - I'd recommend replacing (and plus size) your stock crankbait hooks with Mustad KVD 1x Strong 2x Short Triple Grip Treble Hooks At this point you don't really have much to loose - except more Huge Bass that is - A-Jay

You're HOF QB retires so of course you let the back up QB you've been grooming walk away ~ Makes perfect sense. Paging Mr. Colin Kaepernick, Mr. Colin Kaepernick, will Mr. Colin Kaepernick please pick up a white courtesy phone . . A-Jay

Solid Advice no matter where you fish ~ btw ~ Love to see some pics A-Jay

Agreed ~ A-Jay

Stability is a function of design ~ some are better than others. This one's pretty good. A-Jay

@Choporoz & @Bluebasser86 Thank you for the props but I was merely the messenger. Mr Dobson deserves All the credit. For me, learning to fish a blade bait offered a super effective option during the colder water periods that I didn't have before. I'm super confident in it. Glad you guys are having fun. A-Jay
