New PB for my son ?

[The Baron]

Went out to another new to us lake Sunday (just got a boat this year, so almost everywhere is new to us).  I wanted to map some structure and find smallmouth, but after less than an hour of that with only a few small fish, we swung near a weedy bay and my son started catching largemouth on a wacky rigged senko.  He wanted to stick with that (can’t blame him) so he kept throwing a wacky and I tried a TR Bandito Bug.  Ended up my son put on a wacky worm clinic and caught half a dozen in less than an hour… to my zero ? including his new PB - 3.65#.  We went on to try frogging through the midday and caught a few, including Wes catching his first ever LMB on a frog (he tried last year and never got hooks in one), which he was more excited about than his PB. Lol.   It was a good day.

Sounds like a fantastic day. Nothing like seeing your kids grow and succeed. Congrats!

Nice. Y’all are putting that new boat to some good work.

Please tell Wes that the Bass Resource gang is mighty proud of him, but don't tell him that I never caught a bass that big at his age. I'm afraid he'll start trash talking me! Also, tell him that he should be proud of his first froggin' bass. Froggin' is hard!*

 

 

*But nothin' is more fun.

Awesome! When I was a kid nothing was cooler than seeing my grandpa proud of my fish catches. Great to see other families making memories on the water.
