Roger Roger that is Impressive for sure. And although I know he would not say it here - I think Dwight's PB Walleye is in the 12 pound class. The picture looks like an Alligator with no legs !

Super User HoosierHawgs Posted December 27, 2014 Super User Posted December 27, 2014 Nice fish! I once saw Randall Tharp kill em on a swim jig right after a cold front on Okeechobee like that. 1 Quote

Ah - gift cards - PERFECT - you get what you want and not a bunch of stuff you might not need. There are days when live bait definitely gives you an advantage. What a phenomenal day you guys had. I'm a native Floridian, grew up in South Florida, fished the 'Glades (this in the 1960s)...but my Dad and I never had that kind of day. Such a wonderful fishery you're enjoying. To put it in perspective from my viewpoint some quick figures. In 2013, the local bass club here in TN, in 16 tournaments totaling over 2,000 angler-hours, only caught 19 LMB 3 pounds or heavier. That year, I caught 25 LMB 3 pounds or heavier, thus beating the bass club. You guys, in ONE DAY, caught more FOUR pound or heavier LMB than our 3 pound numbers for an entire YEAR. Just INCREDIBLE ! CONGRATS again... 1 Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Definitely looks like you guys beat that cold front! 1 Quote
