Super User Bassn Blvd Posted January 10, 2008 Super User Posted January 10, 2008 Great job. Looks like she came out of some very clear/clean water. Quote
LCpointerKILLA Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 That is such a nice fish man. I'm jealous brotha! They just don't look that purty down here! Now the women down here look the best. You see, we're even! ;D As my uncle would say: THE THREE B's: BEER B*TCHES and BASS!!! I wouldnt say that of course... Quote
Hawg Bass Assassin Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 Paul, Didn't take ya long to catch another Hawg bro. Congrates. Sure is a lengthy Hawg..What did she measure 25" 26" ? H.B.A. Quote
paul. Posted January 10, 2008 Author Posted January 10, 2008 thanks y'all. yep, she did have some pretty colors. i'll try to answer some questions. What did she measure 25" 26" ? probably closer to 24+". i don't think it was anywhere close to 26. didn't measure it though. Looks like she came out of some very clear/clean water. you are correct! you obviously know your bass from a hole in the ground. ;D ;D ;D just messin' with ya buddy. you are absolutely right man. there is about 2 ft+ visibility. clever of ya to pick up on that. i love bein' on a forum with guys who know their fishin'. watcha catch it on? caught it on a cotton candy colored tube t-rigged with spinning tackle so there was some drag pullin' goin' on. i tried a suspending jerkbait and shallow crank too, but blanked on those. as far as the other details go, i caught this out of a small lake/big pond below our house. it was around 3:30 - 4:00. i have tried to keep this lake fairly well stocked, but i was set back last summer when we lost some good fish in the drought. nice to know there might be a few good ones still in there though. like BB said, it is usually very clean/clear. there is some grass and mussels in there and that's why. i even saw some small bass swimming around in the shallows. hopin' for another one like her (or bigger) soon. y'all keep your fingers crossed.
