i'm going to try, maybe thursday and saturday

 

Mutt you have 2 18" fish to cull. Best of luck. You have to replace them with 20" fish to maybe secure. AK, has some big fish holes, he will go to to secure the win.

Weekend started off slow with Czar and DS.  We were out from 6:30 to 11:45 ish and got into some fish hitting up about 5 or 6 different spots. Missed a big one where DS caught his PB on a frog and caught another one on a frog at Wells.  All the other fish that morning came on KVD 1.5 (craw and bluegill) and Shad Rap (bluegill).  Then I went back out around 3-3:30ish to my golf course, I don't even know why I drive to all these far places when this spot is right up the street. Got into a bunch of fish biggest being 21" that came on the black frog, as usual. I caught 6 on the frog, if I remember correct, and missed a whole bunch more.  Then I caught 3 on my Shad Rap but they were all dinks. 

 

Sunday I went out around 4ish to the course again and they were on but my hook set wasn't.  I had one giant, could have been the biggest bass I caught there easily. I did a oops cast and was just reeling it back in and wasn't paying attention.  I hear and then feel her explosion and I set the hook.  She stayed deep shaking her head and then she graced me with her presence on the jump as she shook the hook and took off! I had a bunch more misses stayed there for about a hour hitting up the 3 different ponds that I usually have success in.  I had two or three retrieves in different ponds when the fish hit it more than 3 times one hit it 4 times in a row (may have been the same fish or could have been 2 fighting for the frog IDK) I left there and found this other spot that is on my way home.  I stopped there for only 20mins or so before it got dark and ended up catching 10 all dinks biggest was maybe 1.5# all on a shad rap. 

 

Today went out for a few hours with DS and Czar I got skunked but they caught some fish, I didn't see any of them so they could be lying lol just kidding DS sent me a pic when I was on my way. I had one fish bump my KVD at DS PB spot.  Funny I casted out and was reeling in fast and then BOOM BIGGEN!!! My rod tip is bending and I feel the fish... then I reel in and realize I was snagged on a rope LMAO. I swear I thought I had like a 6lber or more and the fact that when I was reeling the rope was moving and giving resistance so I thought it was a fish hah. Fortunately none of them saw me because they were fishing the pond across the street but I told them about it lol. Then we went to another spot and I had two hits on the frog but missed em both. 

 

Here is the 21" only one that did anything for my number.

 

 

one of the prettier fish that I have caught

This thing is unbelievably smooth. Palms really nice, and looks better in person than in pictures. Its kind of sized in between a Lews and a Shimano 200 series. I haven't had a chance to cast it yet, but brought a rod and line to work with me and its spooled up. If you want to see pics just follow on Instagram-lgmouthgambler. I will be doing a review of the reel as I am going to be using the Ish out of this thing for the next few months, but will be posted on uLtiMateBasS . From what I have been told by Ron@DelawareValleyTackle, he wont be able to get anymore until after Christmas because Daiwa fell short on production numbers for the demand of this beast.
