Gotta Love It

You know that bass is tiny when you can't lip it!!! If it was legal, that would be the perfect size fish for an aquarium!

That sucks that those hurricanes killed off fish of that size... I heard that lake had some nice size bass but not that big!!! Atleast you know there are still double digits in there. I always tell my wife if she divorces me, then I am moving to Lake Carlton Arms (for the fishing!) LOL!!!!! Anyway, maybe a canoe would work too instead of a kayak? The guy I was talking about had a canoe with a TM. He did flip it on the big lake and lost all his equipment. I hope to see pics of your future double digit here... soon!

Sorry about what I said before!!! It is a great accomplishment to finish your education!!! Congratulations and Best Wishes for your future!!!

Glad I only had to visit the ER for a hook in my finger... that looks like it would hurt soooo much more!!!

Great pics... Great fish!!!

Thanks for posting those pics Craig!!! Fork looks like a great place to fish! Glad to see everyone had a great time!!!

No I don't fish any other lakes. Like you said no need to with all the fish in the lakes around me. I live at Lake Carlton Arms. The Lake Carlton Arms on Van Dyke? I work with a guy that lived there and he said some big bass are caught out of those lakes (Crappie too)! I fished the big lake about ten years ago... Only nailed a few dinks... I guess those dinks could have grown up to be the ones you are catching now ...

This is definitely the place to be!!! Welcome!!!

I'm not sure who fed that lie to you, but let me know how that works out. No more homework = getting a job = more bills = more responsibilities = even less free time. Then you get a house, a wife, kids, pets.... Welcome to my world!!!

Nice fish Sneaky! Is that an apartment complex you are fishing? The fish seem to be very healthy! I noticed you live in Lutz. I was wondering if you fished anywhere else in the Tampa area? Then again, maybe you don't since you have been posting some very nice fish from that lake! Keep the pics coming!!!

Nice partial resume Catt! I think you may be over qualified for this position ;D

Actually, it would be great if they where fishing through a hole in the ice! True redneck ice fishing ;D

That is nice that your former boss allows you to fish his lake... You must have left the company on good terms!!! Another beautiful Bass!!!

That is one nice fish!! I can't believe you can fish lakes on a golf course! All the courses here make you leave!!!

Nice fish! Why did you get crap for the other pics you posted?

No kidding... I just dropped a boat load of money last night at BPS!!! : 1) Use up a bunch of my plastics (and hopefully not buy more) 2) Find a consistent pattern on the evil lake in my backyard!!! 3) Hopefully land a few double digit bass 4) Make sure my brother (he just realized how much fun fishing is) keeps fishing! 5) Finally, not have one of the gators in my evil lake eat me!!!

No problem and that is a sweeet pic!!! Wish I was there!!! I am sure the BR crew is having a great time!!!

I sooo wish I could be there, but you see I have a 2 year old and its hard to find someone to watch her for a whole week!! So I stayed behind, hopefully next year I can make the trip. The guys seem to be having a GREAT time. I know exactly what you are saying! I am blessed with family that will take my kids anytime! I am sure you will be there next time! Thanks again for the updates!!!

Two 15 pounders found floating? What is the Varner lake record? Let's see.... move into Fish Chris's neighborhood or move near Varner??? Tough decision...

Welcome Mike! Blue Eyed Fisher Chick... I can't believe you didn't make the trip with Craig??? Oh well... I guess it is good for us since you are our life line to Fork!!! Thanks for the updates!!!

I got it too... does it itch?

Great fish!!! Where in Florida are you catching those beauties!!!

Hopefully you catch him before he loses the trap !!! Truly difficult to determine the size but a great pic!!!

Is that redneck ice fishing or rednecks on their boat... where is the trolling motor??? ;D

Sorry to hear that!!! Everything will be fine!!! Be positive and support him!!! And we will be here if you need support!!!
