I went to the same lake I always go to and caught 6 bass and my grandpa got 2. My 2 biggest were both 22 inch. The first weighed 5lb 4oz and the second weighed 6lb 5oz. I also caught a 16inch, 2 15s in 2 casts, then another 15. I have to catch and certify 3 more trophy bass to get an award. (trophies are at least 22 inches) Most of the trophys I catch are barely over 22 or just an inch or two over. Is this because there was a good hatch the year they were born :-?

Heres the 5-4:

The 6-5:

Buddy, the fish you catch are as big as you are! Well done!

Nice Fish!  ;D

Looks cold.

Outstanding work youg jedi.

but have details we must...........hmm.........yes.

Details... very cold it was. It was one of those days that water freezes on watever lure you recently used and set down for a minute. Early I could only throw a small crank with spinning gear, no luck, so I tried out King Kong and got a 16 inch. After that I could just barely cast my viento about 30 feet max with a 1/2oz jig. I got it nowhere near the brush that I got broke off in on the 21st  but hooked into the 5-4. I moved up to a point and, again, got the jig nowhere near it but hooked into the 6-5. Later on after the viento heated up I caught a three off the same brush the 5-4 came out of. I missed a great fish near the ramp on the jig, it felt like I had a stick on until I pulled it up to the boat and it went crazy and unbuttoned  . Im thinking that there may be a 24-28 inch at this one spot but I cant fish for about two weeks so shell have to wait. The more productive lures were the strike king black/blue 1/20z rattling jig and the baby bass king kong.

You seem to be haveing great luck recently. It seems jigs realy are working out great for you. I only managed three bass today and my biggest one was only 1 LB 13 OZ. I was only out for about an hour and a half though....

Hope you get those three more trophys you need to get that award... im sure you will

Nice looking fish and thanks for the details.  I hope you get your 2 remaining trophy fish in 2 weeks.

I was using an el cheapo quantum with a 6 inch King Kong and 25# braid. The rod was a 1/4 flex but the Kong barely moved it :-?

That started with that big drum you caught years ago! We need to fish some this spring... so I can catch your fish.

yelp need to clean the dust off the reel and sling a few lures before long.
