.....but I caught this big chub and a zander today. The chub was caught on pointer 78 and the zander on a evergreen icecream bill shad. The bass just won't bite even though I see plenty around.

Nice fishin t-rig. The green ones will start biting soon.

Nice fish T-rig.  

I've always wanted to catch a Zander!  Most of the sportfishing books I read as a kid were from Europe and they always mentioned Zander.  One of these days!  

Nice fish!

whats the size of that chub?

nice!!!!

Nice fish, can you eat them?  

BIG CHUB!!  Those Evergreen Icecream Bill Shads are sweet.  You can find a few on Ebay from time to time.  Looks like it's starting to get a little warmer there.

5.1lbs. fought real good on my 3/8oz. daiko rod!

Nice little zander Daniel !

Funny it's so dark .... they're usually that dark when spawning or getting ready to.

Looks like you caught him pretty shallow on that gravel bar .... well if your zanders are starting to spawn, that should be bass's turn anytime soon.

Do I spot an Ice-tea bottle in the boat ?  

wow!  great job man.  cool fishes.

Yes, I caught him on a gravel bar in 2 meters of water. You're right, they usually have that color when they are spawning but the water is only 8 celsius. They usually don't start spawning until the water reaches 12 celsius. He must have made himself pretty a little early this year. ;D

Always have my ice-tea with me.
