Fish Gods have been smiling on me

Been on a pretty good roll lately with number of solid bass, not too mention some really nice barracuda.

Tuesday afternoon I hit up my canal, catch a few dinks and a hard hitting 4-5# bass comes way, ok.  Go home have dinner and about 6PM I go back to the canal and not much was going, then at about my last cast I get hit on with a bass that probably was double digits, needless to say I was damned pleased.

Now the fun is just starting, out with my offshore homeboys Wed. morning and only 10 minutes of fishing I hook in a sailfish that nearly spooled me on my Soron 60 and Redbone boat rod, along boatside we release it to be caught another day.  Then a 30# kingfish, smaller king and finally amberjacks, the hardest fighters of all, I go one and lost a few.  This guy has one tired right arm after handling all those fish, but I guarantee  I'll be out again tomorrow.

Wow, sounds like the fishing's been incredible for you! Keep up the good work.

send some of that luck up here to PA!

Pictures of the DD bass? You've definitely been blessed congrats.  :)

Difficult to do photo justice while shore fishing so I seldom have camera or phone with me, holding a fish at arm's length just doesn't do it.

Offshore when we hook up it's common that everyone is hooking up at the same time so taking pictures its tough, a bit of chaos going on.  I usually have a camera with me but don't even think about taking out until it's too late.

Man, you're on a roll!

Just because we have members that do catch DD,

that doesn't mean they are common. I read somewhere

that less than 5% of bass fishermen have caught a true

5 lb fish. As I recall, the average "fishing hours" required

is over 100. Your recent catches are remarkable.

Congratulations!
