Ending with a bang! (PB)

[FordsnFishin]

Finally got a chance to get out on the lake the day before Thanksgiving. I told myself the day before that I'm going no matter what. 

So off I went,  39 degrees out ,  and a very steady rain . 

Overall, it was the best day of fishing I've had all year.  Ended up hooking into 16 largemouth, several in the 3-4lb range,  3 hybrids, and one fat sauger.

Oh yeah,  and I also snagged my new personal best largemouth! She went 7.07lbs and was just a hair under 22 inches. Hooking into her sure kept me warm. 

 

If you click on photos they straighten out.  sorry lol

Congrats! 78 pointer is one of my favorites, but it's never caught anything near that size.

78 is a favorite of mine as well.  The funny thing is,  I fished the exact area I caught her half an hour earlier with a 128 sp pointer.  Kept getting 1lbers following my bait to the boat, so I tied on the 78 to see if it would entice them more.  Little did I know it would bring big bertha out.

WTG! Great day.

Determination pays.

I always knew the day before whether it was actually going to be worth stopping to pick up a potential fishing partner at 4am. Any hesitancy and I found it wasn't worth stopping. Never lost any friends that way either.
