 Kudos to you. Those are some fine looking hawgs.

[QUAKEnSHAKE]

Well cant catch the big ones every outing but this is ridiculous. Only caught two in 4 hours and they were both this size.

[jr231]

Perfect for bait (;

How do you get fish that small hooked?? Ahhh, Ned rig!! That's what you guys are always talking  about. 

[QUAKEnSHAKE]

Well nothing I was throwing was working senko ika jig keitech impact fat so went for gills. Started using 1" gulp minnow on 1/80 jighead size 10 and not even one bluegill caught.

You should feel more accomplished for caching multiple fish that size! Heck anyone can get a hook in a 5 pound basses mouth. Heck some can fit a whole fist in there, but to catch something that small takes extra skill!!

2.5 lbs on the Loon Plopper 130. got her right after the pause.

"right after the pause" makes you think a little

Between work and school just starting up I've been busier than a one legged man in an...nevermind.
Anyway, the last couple days I've managed to get a little time between class and work to hit the pond. I was also finally able to get my very first fish on frogs. They aren't giants or anything but the way they hit that Pad Crasher is almost addicting.

Here's a couple smallies I worked fairly hard for today in 20+ FOW.  Both caught on a 3.5" green pumpkin strike King tube dipped in Chartruese JJs Magic.  3.54 and 3.08 lbs.

After spending last night sorting through my tackle to get ready for my vacation on Cape Cod i was staring at my $1 Walmart spinner that ive  never used. Decided to hit my local lake at night right after the rain and got this. Had another one that dwarfed this one but my stupid ass tried to heave her up while on a small bridge. It was inches away from being landed until the line broke off while rubbing on the stone ledge. this catch barely takes away from the sting but what ever.

A TW shirt I don't have....

I find it hard to take pictures of nice fish . Seems I only catch the big ones when I fish by myself

[Attila]

Was a fun morning to be out and about....caught quite a few with this being about the average size.  Rock flats were the ticket early in the day with fish sitting in less than 4ft of water.

First smallie of 2016 for me after a long recovery. It felt really good to get back on the water. 

[Dypsis]

@Dwight Hottle Very awesome for you my friend!!!!  Glad to hear you are back on the water.  Hope all is well going forward as well.

[jr231]

Well, you know what they say about big hands...... It's hard to find gloves that fit.

Slaunch...

I'm not gonna look it up so as to hear it from the horse's mouth, but is that a real word and what does it mean?

2.6 lbs. Really long with dark red gums. I think it lost some weight recently because the head was a lot bigger than the body. June bug looking yum wooly bug.

 Although Definitely not an actual word,  I do believe this slang term  SLAUNCH was first coined by Mark Zona  (that's who I stole it from) & used to describe any rather Oversized Bass.  I'm not certain if it's a combination of Slob & perhaps Staunch.   Either way I think it sounds funny. 

Bass anglers have a number somewhat bizarre and often kind of off the wall names for Big Bass; besides pig, hoss, & fatty there's . . .

• beast, brute, monster
• sucker, giant, dandy
• sow cow
• moose, toad, mule
• whopper
• Sasquatch or Basssquatch
• chunk, chub, slob
• big nasty
• slaunch donkey (credited multiple times to Mark Zona)
• Godzilla, water zilla, hogzilla or Basszilla
• butterball
• football
• bucketmouth
• Rumpletoadskin (by Sv Rider)
• Hog Molly
• biggun'
• girl names: Nadine, Bertha, Mona, Jezebel
• boy names: Bubba, Tyrone, Ned
• big mama or big papa
• Frankenstein
• swamp donkey
• swamp gator
• grass monster
• Big Mac
• wildebeest
• Big Mama Jama
• hippopotobass
• slobber knocker
• chunky monkey
• pole bender
• behemoth
• hydrilla gorilla
• Jolly Green Giant
• Toad Choker
• humdinger
• Slabber Jabber
• Granddaddy
• whale
• log donkey
• moss monkey
• tank, truck, hemi
• Loch Ness Monster
• swamp jockey
• stump knocker
• hammer, bruiser, beefcake
• Boom Boom Pow
