BassObsessed Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 My wife and I are in Kissimmee Fl on vacation and I'm getting alot of fishing time in. Yesterday was the first day I got to fish and had a slowwww morning and didn't get any bites until the afternoon. I stopped at alot of neighborhood ponds and a few golf courses. Ended up catching 3 total with the biggest close to 3lbs. Today I set out in a different direction and the first few ponds didn't produce anything until I got to the gold mine. I was throwing a River2Sea rig walker swimbait along the bank and felt a nice hit. After getting her in she was about 3lbs and fat. A few more long casts into the middle and halfway back in it hit like a freight train. The rod I'm using is puny for traveling purposes and didn't have much backbone trying to fight her in. When she was close to the bank I could see in the clear water that she was a hawg. It was tricky getting my scale and camera while holding her in my other hand. She was just over 10lbs and fat. I have 4 guided trips to do still. Can't wait to hit some big lakes. 17 Quote

Super User Senko lover Posted February 5, 2015 Super User Posted February 5, 2015 Florida is such an amazing state for fishing. Even pond fishing can regularly turn out giants. Well done, sir. Quote
Super User buzzed bait Posted February 5, 2015 Super User Posted February 5, 2015 Even pond fishing can regularly turn out giants. you might find that pond fishing regularly turns out giants in every state, NC included..... that is since the state record was from a private pond. Quote
Super User buzzed bait Posted February 5, 2015 Super User Posted February 5, 2015 that 10 pounder was practice until you get on the big water Quote
Zach Dunham Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 Beast! I wish that would happen during my vacations, lol. Quote

BassObsessed Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 Thanks guys. This state is insane with the bass fishing. I fished Toho today and caught 15 bass with the biggest over 10lbs. I'll make another post for that. 4 Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted February 5, 2015 Super User Posted February 5, 2015 Niceeeee! Gorgeous fish Quote
Super User senile1 Posted February 5, 2015 Super User Posted February 5, 2015 Great work! That's an awesome bass. And I am assuming we will see more from your last post above. I am insanely jealous! I can't wait to see the pics. You are making my cabin fever acute and life threatening. Quote
BassObsessed Posted February 15, 2015 Author Posted February 15, 2015 What a slap in the face and back to reality in my home state with -17 degree temps and 35mph winds. Why in the world did I come back to this crap? Where is the thumbs down smiley? Atleast the vacation was nice with fishing and other attractions. Caught 2 over 10lbs one pushing 8 and alot of 3-5's along with some dinks. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted February 16, 2015 Super User Posted February 16, 2015 Wow, you had a great vacation. Nice catch! Quote
