Later today im going to a place in florida ive never fished called eagle lake, supposed to have bass called sunshine bass in it. Hopefully I dont get my butt whooped and I can hook some fish, havent fished a new body of water in awhile...

Anyways I'll post how it goes!

Good luck today - tight lines.

Good luck man. How big do they get?

Idk I think they are the same thing as hybrid stripers, so pretty big I guess. The lake has only been stocking them for two years so I wouldn't expect to catch any bigger than 5lbs+... Were heading out there now

I mean I'm gonna be fishing for largemouth but it'd be fun to catch one of those

Man I wasn't ready for that deep lake, there was lots of spots in the 30-35ft range... Got my butt whooped but I didn't get skunked, caught my first two wipers! Man they were only 1-2lbs but they fight hard! I was using a xcalibur 2.5 squarebill and it had no problem pulling drag... Nice lake though, people were catching bream and specks like crazy all around us but I just couldn't catch many bass...

Yeah! I saw that, crazy good fish that guy had. He caught em from the dock too which makes it even cooler!

Cool catch! Always exciting to fish a new place, and in my opinion is a great way to learn. Oh, and it's a bonus if you nail some fish, which you did! 

Is that a zeles on the deck behind you?

Great - a new adventure, a new lake, and some new fish. Hope you had fun.

Yeah that black rod is a shimano zeles
