They kept getting bigger and bigger.

but not super big.  

The boss let us off work early today so I raced home and grabbed a couple rods.  I took one lipless crank and one pack of worms.  I forgot the name of the crank but it's aurora blue or black in color with rattles.  It's also missing one hook, thanks to the Peacocks. The worms were Charlie Worms 8" June Bug (because I ran out of my Gene Larew 12"ers).

The air temp was 69 degrees when I got out of the truck and had dropped to 63 when I finished.  Bluebird skies and gusty winds.

This was the first one I got.  She ate the worm.  I caught one more that was almost identical.

I moved locations and got this one on a worm also but she was a tad bit bigger than the first two.

I moved spots again after going to the store to get some munchies.  Orange Crush and cheese crackers with peanut butter in the middle.

The next two also came on a worm and again progressively got bigger.

By the way, these were fish 4 and 5.  All caught on the same worm before it ripped beyond repair.

I decided to use the lipless crank next.  My worm rod was really no match for these fish.  My crank rod is a bit lighter so I thought it would be more exiting, only the fish kept getting bigger.

and then the biggest and last.  She wasn't real big but probably a solid 5.5.  Which was a blast on the crank with #10 mono.

These fish literally started out small and got bigger and bigger.  Each one I caught was bigger than the last, which was kinda cool considering a cold front moved in earlier this morning and we're expected to have record lows tonight.

  for looking.

These fish literally started out small and got bigger and bigger.  Each one I caught was bigger than the last,

then why ain't ya still out there?  if you were still fishing, you'd be up to at least a 15 pounder by now. ;D

HaHa.  That would be nice but it's a freezing 53 degrees right now.  Don't forget us Florida boys get cold easily.

LOL! It hasn't been this cold here probably in like 2 years (at least it feels like it)... I ain't goin' out there fishin' after the sun is almost down until I get a few days to get used to this haha! ;D

(I'll be out there though, eventually!) ;)

LOL.  I had the opposite effect a couple weeks ago. :D
