What a morning!

[NHBull]

Woke up at 0500 and while making the coffee I knew I was going to catch a 5 lb’er. There was zero doubt and I never get this feeling.  Got to the boat and filled a live well (first time this year) and added Release Me.  Changed the battery in the scale and something told me to go to a spot I haven’t been in 3 years. I was not drawn to the obvious spot, but one 30 yards down.  Ten minutes later I feel something, then think I set it on a rock.  There was no movement and I started to move the boat to try and get it unsnagged. As soon as my foot touched the TM it started taking line.

Truth be told, it wan like a small Bowfin I caught last year.  My big concern was that I had a NECO on a ML spinning setup with a 6 lb leader in a rock infested area.

Almost 10 minutes later, it’s in the boat.

5.2lbs and the only fish I caught all morning.

 

There will be a little extra in the collection plate this week?

Very cool! Sometimes you just gotta listen to where you're being led!

Nicely Done Sir ~

Your solid summer continues.

I foresee a bass of epic proportions in your future this fall.

Stay ready.

Congrats
