Hi guys and gals, I had the most incredible day... I worked on the boat, then went fishing... I just bought a new Shimano Saros 2500 and wanted to try it out... Great reel... second cast I catch a sun fish... then I leave my spot and go down a little bit further and no bites... Im about to leave when WHAMMMMM my lure gets hit... The LM Bass was so powerful and it was my first this big....

Here are some pics...

Nice big fish!  Where were you fishing?

Nice hawg you got there FishinGirl. How much it it weigh?  Oh yeah, Go SOX!!!

Very nice! I think I need to start bring my rod to work. Still no action up here in NH. Things are just now thawing out. Can't wait.

Congratulations....Keep it up.

I went fishing in South Eastern Mass in Dighton...small town near Taunton and Somerset..  so I casted with my new Shimano Saros and loved it... I caught a sun fish on my second cast on a simple silver lure and then casted about 20 times more with no hits... I was about to leave when WHAMMM that bass hit so hard that it startled me.. didn't know what just happened...  I have never caught a LM this big... I had to climb about 4 rocks to get back to land to take pics on my camera phone and then had a hard time taking the hook out.. The hook felt like it was in plastic on the side of his month...   What a great day...

Hope you got her back in okay. We need her eggs out there.
