what is that

Man those are some nice fish I bet they taste even on the grill better than they look... I love me some sea bass

I never got a chance to come out there I fell asleep. I was up with my girl until about 5:20am then I put my head down for a second and next thing I know it is 12:30 and time to leave the hospital

EAGLES. need I say anymore

Fishing is better than golf IMO Now miniature golf is another story!

Idk what is more impressive the size of the head on the fish or that amazing paint job on the boat! You may be a little too old for this term but your boat is "swagged out" (that's a compliment)

You should take some pictures and show us some of the big ones you've been catching I have to get in some night fishing soon

I would feel like a "female dog" if I got attacked by a beaver lol I do not see a beaver as a Formidable opponent, I'm sure they can pack a punch though

That's a nice ass fish in the pic with the sandel. I have one of those frogs you are talking about but I have never used it before. I am gonna give it a try

I am gonna go pick up some junebug color plastics tomorrow on my way home from the hospital. Before I went home to get some things for my girl I was talking to a staff member here at Baptist South Hospital and he fishes. He said the pond on the emergency room side of the hospital holds some massive bass. So I went and picked up some things for my girl put the car seat in my car and of course had to throw my travel rod and my tackle box in my trunk. Since I have been up early as hell with my girl and my baby I figured I'd hit up that pond at around 5:30am and see if I can get anything. MCS if u happen to see this and u r gonna be fishing in the morning let me know and maybe we can meet up and fish here or at your publix spot. Let me know

That is a nice fish in that pic man

Thanks man. I am not sure where u live but the publix is on batrum parkway in a big shopping plaza. There is a resturant called bono's and if you park in their lot you can get to the pond. And it is easy enough to put a kayak in so you wouldn't have a problem doing that. One day when you get back we need to fish man and you can show me some of your spots off of bay meadows

d**n I don't understand how you crash into a wall on the water in a boat

Beautiful view man catching some hogs will make the day complete

Yea man that pond looks like it holds some pretty big bass in it. I need to find me one like that

Can you send me the name of the bait that they block out on the forums, idk if it will block it out on the message. I am always down to save a few bucks on tackle

You said that you use 4.5" rattle snake what brand do you use? And where do you get them? I was looking into buying a cheap Jon boat that I can throw into my lake. I've been looking on Craig's list.

I heard that Over by Saint Johns Town Center are flooded there are a lot of lakes and ponds over there so all this rain caused them to flood

d**n! That is my dream trip right there! Catching big largemouths and big muskies! I have never caught a Muskie before I just caught some beast over size pickerel and pike.

Nice fish man! Where we're you guys fishing? I am lived in NJ my whole life I just moved to FL from manasquan (that's right next to point pleasant) so I am familiar with the area

Nice catches man I havent caught a crappie in years! There was this lake across from my high school in NJ and I caught monster crappie in there.

Funny thing when I was back in NJ I was fishing at the manasquan Resivour and they have a big dock that people fish from easily holds about 20 to 30 people fishing at a time comfortably, probably even more. This guy was fishing with his family and went to go help his little girl and then all of a sudden something took his whole rod into the water. What made it even funnier is that his children were cracking up. They have some big fish in there like largemouth, smallies, pickerel, pike, muskies, catfish, and monster catfish and hybrid stripe bass. They have some big snapping turtles in there too but nobody knows what took the rod. My guess would be a catfish or a Muskie, there are huge Muskie in there.

Beautiful fish man and amazing spot! I don't really know of any spots around me with a lot of Lilly pads. Back in NJ it seemed like every pond has Lillys in em. Did you guys get a chance to weigh the beast?

You said it perfectly that is exactly what I do as well.

Nice catches Jax and MCS. Looks like the rain is going to do us good here in Jacksonville and it is Suppose to be nice the rest of the week starting Thursday. I've been at the hospital with my girlfriend the past 2 days my first child my son Adrian was born on 6/26/2012 at 8:53am... By far my best catch! I will finally be able to get some fishing in this week when the baby is napping. Jax I was going to check out the lakes you gave the coordinates to on Monday. I plugged them in and went to check them out because I was at the Town Center at Babies R Us ironically. Then we get home and I was preparing to go out and the. My girls water broke. So I will have to Fish them in the next couple weeks. Right now I am just going to have to stay in my backyard pond so I can help my girl out with the baby if needed. And MCS that was a fatty man!!! I can't believe thT is in the publix pond. Were you in that cove that is by the steakhouse I think? We can bring the baby home on Thursday so I am bringing my rod with me when I run home tonight and I am going to the publix pond an some of the ones by citi bank since I am right here. And how much did that fish weigh do you know? Nice catch man now I have faith in the publix spot because I never caught anything the couple times I went.
