Took the family out to one of the local lakes for an evening of fishing.  After throwing a Cabelas Mad Tommy Toad for a while, I decided to give the senko a try.  After a few casts, I feel that familiar tap...tap tap.  Give a little pressure, feel the weight, and go to set the hook.  Swing and a miss.  Few casst after that, same thing.  Finally, on the third strike I connect and the battle was on.  I land her and was in awe since I had told my wife that you can never tell the size of the fish by the bite on a senko.  What makes this fish extra special was we were fishing a lake that is selective gear rule.  For those not familiar with this, it means single, BARBLESS hooks only.  On top of that, I was using a light action rod.  Needless to say, I was fortunate to land her.  Took some rough measurements, 19" long by 15.5" girth.  The weight calculator on this site says 5.5 lbs.  Does that look about right from the pics?

Sounds about right, Nice fish!!

Right on! Way to represent WA state! ;D I know about selective gear rules. They kind of make you a better angler.

I think the scale's short changing you a bit. She seems closer to 6 lbs.

Nice bass !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
