buckmanjr Posted May 21, 2008 Author Posted May 21, 2008 Hey little hawg dude ;D Been to pond X w/Dad yet? You may want to consider it w/the Slammer. LM just starting to move up Saw a 6+ cruising in 6" of H2O in cove on left after island I'll be there Saturday early AM. I will try to get there saturday. Trying to fix the crawdad, if not i might be there with someone else's boat. Quote
dantatro49 Posted May 25, 2008 Posted May 25, 2008 The only reason I asked if he released that fish is because that is an old fish it takes a long time for a fish to reach that size. If you get its proper measurements you can get a nice fiberglass replica made there is no reason to keep that fish. Thats why everyone should practice catch and release that is just what I think. Anyways congrats on catching the hog Quote

I will be ordering the replica soon ;D Quote

Super User Paul Roberts Posted May 25, 2008 Super User Posted May 25, 2008 That is a rare fish. And you targeted it. Congratulations. Very well done. The eastern coastal waters (MA to NJ) seem to give up some bigger bass than more inland. Interesting. Quote
