I always have one tied on. Probably don’t throw it as much as I should. After seeing this I will today.

MEATLOAF!! Nice one B looks like a high 8 low 9#er from the pic. Did you weigh it and measure it for your tournament??

Thanks guys really caught me off guard. Adrenaline racing fist pumping in the air set it on the board close mouth gently and SNAP ok gently close SNAP more water run to pond see gills flexing ok run back to truck set him down and SNAP. So I closed it again and kinda held it down and kept it closed to get the shot. That is the first time in 45 years of fishing that I saw that. Is it more the larger bass or have you guys seen this with regular size and single scoop bass? Thanks again everyone for the info.

Awesome thanks bro

I would start at top and work frog and work my snag proof zoo kick through all from top to bottom throwing up on bank and working back. Then I would have a heavy and light punching/flipping rig and go through with each of those. Also I would run spinner bait and or chatterbait back and forth at different water columns. And I would finally through my crank bait across the point in second picture. Depending on day would depend on what I did first. Looks great!

Henry Shepherd that sounds like a great deal what shape is it in? Why is he selling it?

They say it does. I found a unicorn so I hopefully don’t have to worry about the mariner. I’ve been looking for a boat since I talked to you and Fluke at the retreat. I am the guy with the boat the guy died before he gave me title and bill of sale. Still in process of getting that job boat legal. I found a unicorn though it is a 1997 Sea Nymph FM146 center console with a 25 horsepower Johnson on it. The entire boat and motor only have 10 original hours on them. The lady who is selling it husband passed and they kept it in a garage t for its entire life. I am praying that it pees well when we test it. You wouldn’t believe what she wants for it. Thanks though for checking in. I haven’t had a boat in probably 20 years. I had a 17 foot Lund half V half flat big lakes boat. Very similar to your new toy!!My ex wife’s uncle stole it and hid it in the woods on his property up in west Jefferson NC. A whole other story.
