here's a couple of lucky contestants on today's game of "deal or no deal, bass edition". (they chose deal.) these 2 ladies were just a few of the contestants to play this week. snapped these release pix before they returned home. didn't weigh 'em, but contestant 1 was probably over 7 and contestant 2 was probably over 6. as fat as they were from feeding up on this full moon, perhaps they were in the wrong studio. they should have probably been auditioning for "the biggest loser".

with regards to my tattered digit, there's good news and bad news. the bad news is this will take a day or 2 to heal. the good news is that my other thumb looks just as bad. to say it's been a good week of fishing would be about like saying that getting struck by lightning is "a little under the weather." ;D i can see from looking at the board that several of the rest of y'all took advantage of this full moon too.

seems it doesn't really matter what the weather is doing, as long as that big ol' full moon is hangin' in the sky, they're munchin'! hope y'all are catchin' some too.

SAY AHHHHH........WTG Paul and "Hamburger Thumbs" say "Had'a Nice Day" and looks like you did just that.

Nice Paul!  How has the fishing been for you since the major cold front came thru our area in West TN this week?  I haven't gotten a chance to get out since Monday, but it was 80 degrees, then.  Don't think the highs have been much over 40 in the Memphis area until today where it's 50 right now.  Thought about hitting one of my ponds in either Haywood County or Fayette County this afternoon before dark.  Heading to Beech in the morning to prefish for our club tourney next Sunday.

Very nice.  To me bass thumb is overrated.  I prefer bass palm and it looks like you have a case.

Way to go Paul.  It's good to know you catch a dink every now and again.  I don't think I've ever seen you with any thing under 8.

honestly the fishing hasn't been as good as it was earlier in the week, when it was just off the chain. but they can still be had.  if you have a chance to hit up a pond or 2 this afternoon, i'd definitely do it.  i am a big believer in fishing around the full and dark moons.  i think there will probably be a major bite later this month around the dark moon too.  good luck with the pond hopping, pre-fishing, and next week in your tourney.

LOL. Nice fish Paul! Looks like you're gonna have a great year!
