New personal best Northern Largemouth tonight! 22.25" and  - 6 pounds 12.5 ounces - Kevin Skovenski The big ones must have been roaming this evening.

If you're interested, I'm documenting my SUF BFL journey this year on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZZ9x88sg0eNehrEQePA7sjWHbmIC0k8-   I have a lot to learn about video production and editing. It is a work in progress.

This feisty one did not want it's picture

Finally, on the board for the SUF tournament. I forgot to measure and take a photo of my fish from my tournament last weekend. 

I head out tomorrow morning to paractice for a tournament on my favorite lake. Two nights of camping. Practice tomorrow afternoon and Friday for a Saturday Tournament. Last year, I weighed 16 lbs (picture); I am hoping for that again this year... Fingers crossed - send me some luck!

Are you practicing this weekend for the awesome fun tournament starting in 3 days?

Nighttime beast - just past nightfall - hard bottom shallow - weeds deep - docks - spinnerbait

One Awesome Evening - within the first 30 minutes of a 4-hour trip, I caught nearly a 19-pound bag of my 5 best fish!!!! That does not happen often... I was flipping and pitching around docks with weed transitions to hard bottom, which was the winning ticket. What I noticed was that big females grouped together either before or after spawning, though I'm not sure which. The smallmouth were finishing up their spawning, so these could have been pre-spawn females, but they didn't appear to be very big-bellied. Water temps are in the very low 60's

June 1st (yesterday) our water temps are only 61 degrees --- that is unusual. The average water temperature in Massachusetts lakes during the first week of June typically ranges from about 65-72°F
