Boy oh Boy! did we have a long winter and late Ice out! Been fishing a few times and already got  a Second place finish in a tournament and it's only our second tournament of the season.

 

Last Wednesday my wife and I finally got out together and fished one of my favorite smallmouth lakes. The bite was slow but we manage to catch 30 smallmouth with an upper two pound average and at the end of the day we caught a few three plus pound smallmouths.

 

a few pics from that day We even had two doubles!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then this past Sunday my Wife, son and I went to my favorite largemouth lake and slayed them. We caught 51 largemouth all over two pounds and our best five out of the bunch had a bag weight of 21 pounds 01 ounces this is my biggest bag ever. I've come close to this weigh a lot but never broke 20 pounds. We only went out for four hours too! The fishing was amazing we had three fish on at the same time several times, I caught 3 over four pounds.

 

 

This bass put us at 20# that's what the gang sign means.

Nice going guys.  Lots of nice pics in that group, and a lot of happy fisherman.  Still looks like winter to me!

Beauties all! Well done.

Holy hawg! What did you catch the largemouth on??

Really Good Times Right There ~ Thank you for sharing them.

 

Those Great Big Smiles say it All.

 

Congrats.

 

btw - thanks for having & using a scale.

 

If I had to "guess the weights" I'm pretty sure my brain would blow up . . .

Thanks for the replies.

 

The smallmouths were caught on shadow raps and crankbaits.

 

The largemouth were caught on my home made swim jigs and jigs with rage craws and my wife caught hers on a shakey head jig with rage craw.

Geez I didn't know it was June already? Keep on em. When I talked with familiy just last week they were still getting snow.

 LOL, It was almost 60 degrees that day. We still have a little snow in the woods in places. We had six feet of snow around my house this winter, I could actually walk onto the roof of my house. I love this time of year. I like it more than June, after the ice goes out  the bass in my neck of the woods are very hungry and sometimes you get a fish on every cast.

 

I've got my third tournament of the season this Saturday. I hope my father and I can get into like I did with my wife and son. Its a different lake just a few miles away and it fishes about the same.
