Ok so I am out bed fishing the other day and I find a good one. I toss my gill in there and she is sitting about 2-3 ft away. The male is irate. He is thrashing the bait like a dog and his toy. Its prety funny watching him. After about 10 minutes you can see the poor guy is getting frustarted.

But lookie here the Mrs is starting to get agitated too. COOL! I know its coming soon now but as I bring in my gill I get snagged on the only branch that could get me. NO!!!!!!!!So with my bait still hung up I grab another rod. This one has a billed sinking hard gill on it. Not exactly my first choice for bed fishing but It I figured it was close enough to the soft gill that she had just nipped at. Soo I toss it in, let it sink about 10 ft past my target and then I bring it in right towards her face. When I get about a foot away I let it drop right towards her mouth. What did she do? what could she do? Well out of defence she opened her mouth and sucked it in! 10lbs 11 oz. Lake Jennings

Nice  8-)

What a monster.Nice fish.

Very nice my friend.

That's one sweet lady, nice catch. 8-)

shes a pig

Nice looking Hog you got there.

Awesome bass man, Ok I'll admit that is the one bit of jealousy I have with the south and that is the double digit bass. To me 4 to 5 pound bass are huge, but I'll never see a double digit up here. I think our state record is like only 11lbs 10oz. so if I do get a double digit it maybe the new state record.

I'll be happy when I finally break 6lbs, 5lbs 14oz is the closet I've come so far.

NICE SOW MATTLURES LOVE THAT BED FISHING MYSELF. FISHED SAT. BUT THERE WERE NO LARGE FEMALES ON THE BED YET ALL MALES UP TO 4# HOPEFULLY JUST A FEW MORE DAYS.  8-)

WTG Matt  She has the right look for sure. Deep and wide
