powerduster Posted September 14, 2013 Posted September 14, 2013 Hi everyone, I decided to share a few photos of my recent catches. Well, to start off, I recently purchased my first LC sammy 100 after hearing countless great reviews. So decided to test it out at the local lake and got 3 solid strikes. The first was a decent largemouth. The second was a really nice sized pickerel and may be my personal best, but I decided not to measure or weigh any of the fish caught. I thought a carp may have mistakenly grabbed it because it really fought very hard. My line was peeling quite effortlessly. Well, I had to get in the water to pull it out of the weeds before bringing it in. My most memorable catch today. Now, the third fish was a very nice looking smallmouth and ha to be at least 17-18inches. I'm terrible with weight so not even goin to guess that. It fought hard and jump out of the water a few times. I knew visually it couldn't be a pickerel and picks don't really jump that much. It also didn't do the typical headahake largemouths do. So it had to be a smallmouth. My first one in a lake too. I heard smallmouths were in there, but never seen anyone catch them, so it was a pleasan surprise. It looked very healthy too. Just a quick report and sorry if it's a bi confusing to read. I dropped my iphone a few times so the screen is realy messed up. 1 Quote

powerduster Posted September 16, 2013 Author Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks. It's a very healthy looking lake with nice looking fish. I see literally tons of baitfish everyday now. I also catch some really big shiners with 4lb test and smalls hooks using tiny pieces of bread. I actually thought I was catching baby grass carp, lol, they look so much alike. Quote
