well i had a half day of work today which was good cuz i had to get some things done.  while doing these things i stopped by academy and baught some new line(PLine Floroclear)  anyway i was lying on the couch watching TV at about 4:30 and decided i should spool up and go test it out.  so i did.  started off with a white 3/8oz booyah spinnerbait and managed one dink.  then i tied on a LC RC 1.5 in purple perch and managed an even dinkier dink.  each of these fish came on the first cast with each bait.  then i moved to the other tank across the way(same tank my PB came from)  right now it is about 3 feet low, and it is a really small tank so there isnt much left of it.  i threw the RC out a few times and then i scored this one

it went 2.5 on my scale and i have to say that thing put up a hack of a fight, and it bit at the extent of my cast so i had a nice little fight.  this is the first fish i have caught over 2lbs in a long time, and these were the first fish i have caught in these two tanks in even longer.  i was only gone for about an hour too!!  i will post my thoughts on the new line in the other thread i have going on that topic

thanks!

Glad you got to get out.  What took you so long to try out the line?

That is a good looking bass.

Nice job Red!  

Whats going on with your rod in that picture?  Looks like the guides are on opposite sides.

Glad you got to get out.  What took you so long to try out the line?

i dont know really, i got home from running my errands and stuff and was kinda tired so i layed down.  then i started thinking, what the *#@& am i thinking. thats when i spooled up and left.  or maybe it was because the wife and kids were fixin to be home  ;D

that rod is spiral wrapped, by our very own alpster...it is an awesome rod!!

congrats.  glad you got to get out and catch a good one.

nice fish Red.

those lucky craft RC's are great little cranks...I have a 1.5 in bull bream that works really well when the water is heavily stained...I have a 2.5 in that purple color you have....don't recall catching anything on it,,,but then again, I don't recall fishing it much

Nice bass! It looks cold there BRRRRRRRR.

Well done, congrats! 8-)

nice
