Bigs Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 Well it finally happened. And what's funny is that when I first got on the water tonite , my buddy was already out there on his boat and had a snakehead in his net as we pulled up in my boat. So I took it off his hands to cook up and trolled away. While we were fishing I was being grumpy cuz I never get to catch them. Fast forward two hours, I tie on a baby minus 1 and catch this in about 16 inches of water. Weighed over 4 pounds, not a monster but meaningful to me since it's my first. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted May 8, 2010 Super User Posted May 8, 2010 that's a little one but it sure has some pretty markings! did you see this? http://www.bassresource.com/bass_fishing_forums/YaBB.pl?num=1273181649 Quote
Bigs Posted May 8, 2010 Author Posted May 8, 2010 ya I saw that and I would hate to have to even deal with that monster. This one I caught got filleted as soon as I parked my boat in my driveway. I also made fillets with another one thats around 7 pounds that my buddy caught tonite. Plus I still have two giants in my freezer. I have enough to last me all summer considering you cant eat it or anything out of the river but once a month or so Quote
LHC - Bank Robber Posted May 8, 2010 Posted May 8, 2010 Congrats on the first one, im sure it wont be the last. I also got my first of the year the other day it was a dink, but still managed to destoy my fav spinnerbait. Dan do you have any more info on that monster you posted? I'd sure like to know the weight on that beast. Quote

I'd sure like to know the weight on that beast. Ya it surely won't be my last. I found a spot that is chalk full of snakeheads. My buddy has been catching several every time he goes to this same area. So I plan on catching and destroying as many as I can . probably wont make a dent in the population but every one that I kill wll at least help a little. I been goin to this spot so much that I totally forgot bout going to Lake Anna cold side for some bedding bass. Quote

People have been killing every one they catch for years and they are still growing in numbers at a very high rate. They sure are fun to catch though. Quote
Dockhead Posted May 14, 2010 Posted May 14, 2010 that's a little one but it sure has some pretty markings! That's what she said - might want to close the barn door for the next photo shoot chief. Quote
