Too lazy to get the boat out this morn and decided to bankbeat.. in 3 hours of work landed close to 20 fish (lost count) mostly 2-3 pounders but did cap it off with 2 hosses:

  21" 5.5 lb and a 20" 4 3/4lb (the 20" broke my flippin stick and ended my day)

Even Mattlures got into it .. first fish on Mattlures only a 14" but hey its the first on the Hardgill.. gonna use it alil more going forward.

Fishin itch is scratched for another week..

 

 

Very nice sir!

That's what I'm talking about ~ !

 

Nice Bass right there . . . 

 

Congrats

Wow! Nice haul!

Can you explain what you've got going on with the lead on the trebles? I have a slow floater, and seeing this intrigues me. Nice fish!

Slow floater?

I have a floater and I think I made the right decision.

Reason is I can essentially make this floater a slow sink (which is how its rigged in the pic)

or leave it as a floater

or fish it like a drop shot (which is a bit of a pain to rig up)

I did it awhile ago but I believe its 2 x 1/8 ounce weight one on each treble

I could have sworn it was called a slow floater when I bought it on one of the releases which I believe was in october or november last year (at least that's when I received the bait). I'm sure there is some reason you would need a heavy floater rather than a normal floater, but I don't know the difference.

You have some nice bass! Good going!

Those are some hawgs dog!^5

Nice! Where are you catching these Hawgs? PM me, I need to get into some of those, unless it's your secret honey hole of coarse.

Boostr, try Merril Creek

Will do.

Great day.  Congrats on some great looking fish.

Very nice bass, especially the one over five.

Awesome!
