Maybe LMG will grace us this month with his new Tatula. Ever since he got that reel, he has been AWOL. 

[fishingator]

Omg had I recorded my "smalls" I would have went up three or four spots!

Gator, same here, I was going to post up 5 but stopped at three.  Had a couple 17's and another 18 to put up but I know 100 inches is the minimum to win here.

[fishingator]

I'm still such a newb my aspirations are to break the top ten roflmao!

[1234567]

You seem to be doing good, my fishing partner has been going with me to Lake O, everglades, crooked lake, etc and he has yet to break the 5 pound barrier.  Going on almost four years for him now, he could have broke it if he wasn't trying to reel them in like a freaking mad man when he hooked them haha!  

[bostonsox2904]

Count me in for December! Here's to my new spot and a little better luck

I am experiencing the same thing. LOL. This will be our 4th season together and my fishing partner gets so excited when he hooks into a nice one that he unconsciously horses the fish. i have to literally scream at him to calm down so that we can land the darn thing without losing it. LOL... 

[Diggy]

Im glad the weather has changed because Im back to catching good #s. Bunch of 3+#s this weekend in with the normal mix of normal to dinks.

[LgMouthGambler]

Sorry, Im late to the results, but it has been a busy week for me.

 

The lures that took the better fish for the month have been frogs and fluke/swim style baits.

 

MCS caught his biggest that I have of 19.5 on a red shad green flake Gambler worm

 

AK had 21 on a black frog

 

Dsidle had 21 on a Lusiana Craw Ribbit frog

 

Lou had 19.5 on a Booyah frog in Brown

 

FSTR with a 20.5 on a pearl Gambler EZ

 

Mutt had a bunch in the 18-21 range using a white fluke, and some 17-21 on a Sexy Dawg

 

Lunkmaster with 17-19 on senkos

 

It was probably a bad month to start doing the trial of lure recording, but it did bring me to an idea of a challenge style to make things a little more interesting. I will not tell you what it is going to be, but I will tell you that it may get you to fish things that normally you wouldn't, and will interesting to see what you guys get out of it.

[BassinLou]

Sounds good, I think I have an idea of what your thinking.

[rabidsquirrel]

This seems like the place to share this sort of thing, so here goes. 

 

My friend and I went out to Lake Kissimmee for a bit of 'fun' fishing - I.e. not pre-fishing or tournament fishing... He and I managed to catch a few despite the crappy weather conditions. 

 

I've got pictures of our biggest fish in my blog entry (~10lbs): Fun Fishing on Lake Kissimmee with my Friend, Dave

 

 

I've got some video of the fish that I need to update that entry with... I hope to have it in there tonight, so check back in a day or so.  

[MCS]

Nice write up and awesome fish

[rabidsquirrel]

Thanks, MCS! Glad you enjoyed it!

[BassinLou]

Nice pig!!

[rabidsquirrel]

I finally added the video: Video of the Big Kissimmee Bass

 

Shortly after we released her I realized that I could have measured her for the Florida TrophyCatch program, although I didn't have a tape type measure in the boat to get her girth measurements with... I will need to put some tailor's measuring tape in the boat for future lunkers, I guess. 

 

Anyhow, it is fairly clear that this bass is in the upper end of the spectrum, approaching or at 10lbs. I hope you guys enjoy the video. Please leave any comments you might have on the blog, as our sponsors like that sort of thing.
