YaHoo Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 me and pops went out yesterday for a little ninja fishing on some private waters! We usually fish these golden lakes on holidays when we know we wont be run off by the owner. Anyways caught over 35 total for the day. My best five prob went 22+ my best day ever. It was his day, but I felt no sympathy on the water. BEATDOWN! He beat me in numbers but I stuck a few pigs. Here is my new PB which I caught on a balsa boogie crankbait on a hump in deep water... We actually lucked up and ran into the owner and are in the process of getting full access! The only negative for the day was these two guys catching 4 lb bass on live shiners and filling two huge coolers. They had 6 rods out each fish after fish. Anyways, no scale idk the size, she had gurth this pic does no justice. MY PB THO!! The other one went about 5-6 I believe. I wish I had a d**n scale, Im still waiting for my first DD. I got the bug more now than ever. Caught and released after only two short pics (30sec) and a revival. TO be caught again 4 Quote
Super User MarkH024 Posted June 16, 2014 Super User Posted June 16, 2014 Great fish man! I would easily put that in the 7-8 category with that big mouth and bulging eyes. Heck of a fish and one to remember! Quote
YaHoo Posted June 16, 2014 Author Posted June 16, 2014 I tried to do take a few pictures with fair comparisons to my body by not holding my arms all the way to the camera. On the bottom one, I am holding it right next to me to compare length. It was an epic fight from about 60 feet out. She jumped a few times and pulled drag under the boat! AHH if I could press rewind! That moment was great! Hopefully the first of many big fish to come. Her tail was all bloody on on side, she was on full on post spawn shad bustin mode! 1 Quote
Super User Darren. Posted June 16, 2014 Super User Posted June 16, 2014 Nice fish! But what's with all the blacking out of stuff? Trying to hide where ya caught it?! Quote
frantzracing0 Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 We usually fish these golden lakes on holidays when we know we wont be run off by the owner. Sorry but this is wrong. If you arent supposed to be there, you shouldnt be. Same as my whitetail lease property, any picture of a tresspasser (via trail camera) is instantly turned into the police. Ask me first, I may set you in a stand. Dont ask and youll never look at this property again. That said. NICE HOG!!!! Heck of a fish man And lucky you the owner was a cool person, hopefully he allows you access. 2 Quote
Mccallister25 Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Although that is one hell of a fish, I agree with the above post.. People are crazy nowadays. If you dont have permission to be on the waters, just try to stay away. Its just not worth it. Quote
YaHoo Posted June 17, 2014 Author Posted June 17, 2014 there is like a 45 page thread of jax fl local pond hopping lakes where 10-15 people post weekly. Of course I wanna hide my new spot that Ive recently gained access to! I guess thats true on the trespass. No need to elaborate with excuse on that one! Thanks all! 1 Quote
5 Dollar Fishing Game Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 10 pounds easy. IMO Fat belly and tall midsection. Big eyes and mouth. I'd say 10.3 Not trying to make this thread a guess the weight game. But I see it over ten. Nice one either way!!! Quote
Super User rippin-lips Posted June 17, 2014 Super User Posted June 17, 2014 Awesome catch. It's over 6lbs for sure. That's all I know about the weight. I agree with others on the trespassing part. The owner has to be a nice guy if he's giving you permission to fish there even after catching you on his property. Quote
Super User aavery2 Posted June 17, 2014 Super User Posted June 17, 2014 Looks like it could be a DD fish to me. But it is awful hard to tell from a picture. Quote
