Dr. Watson Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 To all that get a chance to go fishing with Kent, please do, the new things he introduced me to definitely work. Kent thanks to you introducing me to the rage tails and how to work them, I caught this most likely personal best at the little pond behind the Chik-fil-a on Germantown rd. It had to have been at least 6+ in weight and boy was it a beauty. By the way I wear a size 13 and that thing could have eaten my foot, lol ;D Caught on a 7" Rage Tail Anaconda Update: according to the Bass Resource, bass weight calculator, my fish came in at 9.1 lbs which is most definitely a personal best, beating out my last, which was around 6 lbs.

lynyrdsky1 Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 Great i fish the thing all the time and never catch anything out of it. were you fishing over near that concrete levee lookin thing or where u on other side? Quote
Dr. Watson Posted September 10, 2010 Author Posted September 10, 2010 Great i fish the thing all the time and never catch anything out of it. were you fishing over near that concrete levee lookin thing or where u on other side? I was actually in the slight point in between the two concrete drains, on the chick fil a side. I had another one right after this guy, but he was only about a pound and a half. I caught this one at around 0630. If you'd like, I'm taking a buddy new to fishing, tentatively, on monday morning, you can join us. I'm always looking for new friends, especially fishing buddies since my wife doesn't share the same enthusiasm as I do. Quote

Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted September 10, 2010 Super User Posted September 10, 2010 Nice fish right there. I really like the 7" anaconda myself. I've definitely caught more fish on that one than on the 10" model. Quote

Catching Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 Congrates on the pig, nice healthy looking fish. Quote
hogrustler Posted September 11, 2010 Posted September 11, 2010 You da man Dr. Watson. Nice catch 8-) Quote
phc03 Posted September 16, 2010 Posted September 16, 2010 Nice fish. hey where'd you get that bait? Quote
Dr. Watson Posted September 17, 2010 Author Posted September 17, 2010 Nice fish. hey where'd you get that bait? I actually got them from Kent, but you can pick them up from just about anywhere that sells reputable tackle. Quote
phc03 Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 Hey i did get some of that bait, but do you have any tips on how to use it? Quote
MFBAB Posted September 26, 2010 Posted September 26, 2010 Nice fish DW, WTG! I agree with you, RW is a ton of fun to fish with. We met by chance this morning at a pond in Collierville and spent a couple of hours fishing together, no bigguns got their picture taken but a couple of 5-6'ers were hooked and that's all I'm sayin' RW gave me a couple of Megastrike e2 Shakey Jigs to try out and the biggest Bass of the day stole one of them away from me a little later. Those jigheads are unreal if ya'll haven't tried them, they are the most weedless I've seen and they never roll over. Kent, if you read this thanks again - I've already placed an order for a few packs of those jigs Quote
Super User Sam Posted September 26, 2010 Super User Posted September 26, 2010 Super! Outstanding! Great! Wonderful! Sensational! Beautiful lady. You did good!!!! Congrats on your catch. And yes, the Anaconda's can produce. Give 'em a try on a Carolina rig, too. Quote

I went out there to that pond in collierville by the town hall this morning early and only caught one little dink i was there for 3 hours.

Dr. Watson Posted September 28, 2010 Author Posted September 28, 2010 Hey i did get some of that bait, but do you have any tips on how to use it? well it can be fished multiple ways, the way Kent showed me is very similar to wacky fishing, only a little faster, you can also try fishing like a swimbait and see where that gets you. good luck!

Fish38017 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Newbie here. I'm excited I found this forum. I live in Collierville and I'm always looking for some new holes. Never knew about this spot behind Chick-fil-a. Congrats on the beauty you pulled out of there, Doc. Quote
