So after hearing of RW success at one of our local honey holes, and he stopped by my work today to rub it in( just kidding RW) I had to get out there tonight. I had told the wife that I was going and like usual invited her. I cooked our steaks on the grill in a hurry and got dressed. I see her already in her lazying around the house/night clothes and asked her again to come. She doesn't normally come unless we go trout fishing on the river, but I somehow managed to get her out for only her 2nd bass outing this year. We start fishing down the bank and about 30 mins in I see her reeling in a fish. She says, its a little one. But just then it turns, heads for the middle of the pond and her drag starts screaming. I told her, that ain't no little one about the same time it jumped. She knew then. After what seemed like a 20 min fight(probably like 1 min lol) she gets it close enough to the bank for me to grab it. Her new PB at 4lb 8oz. She begged me not to show the picture, cause you know how women are, when they get there picture taken, and I drug her off the couch in her lazy clothes, but I'm proud and am gonna post it up anyways!

Congrats to your wife on her new PB

Wifey pbs are always fun. Congratulations.

That's an awesome fish. Congrats to her. Sometimes I wish my wife would go fishing with me. Maybe some day.

i've always thought bass in the 4 lb range were the best fighters. and caught on light line on lightweight gear? thats not only a PB catch, thats a truly, impressive accomplishment for an angler. good hubby

Very nice fish!

Very nice!

Congrat's to both of you.

Great fish!
