Big Mike in Fl Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 because the fish I always catch look small compared to me, no matter how much I hold them out. Here are a few fish I caught last friday, we wound up bringing 51 to the boat between two of us, most small,but a few got into the 4lb range. sunday we repeated the onslaught with 59 between 3 of us. again, up to about 4lbs. mostly throwing Tiki sticks, floating worms, top water plugs, and frogs. these fish came from the garcia impoundment, which for those of you who don't know, is just south of the stick marsh, and though it doesn't produce the consistant size of the stick marsh, it has plenty of fish to play around with, and the occasional lunker. This fish was about 3 lbs This one a little over 4, please excuse the beer gut hangin out, its hard to find shirts tall enough, and wide enough for me... Quote
deermaster Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 you could hold those fish up to anything, and they'd still look huge. AWESOME FISH! Quote
fishinfewl Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 You look small compared to the fish. NICE!!! Quote
bassman31783 Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Nice fish. Looks like an awesome area to fish as well. Quote
Big-O Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 That's great Big Mike.....and WOW that's nice lookin water you're on. Nuttin' wrong with being big friend, need that power on the hook-set Just imagine what those fish when you jerk'em up in the boat ;D Big O www.ragetail.com Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted July 7, 2009 Super User Posted July 7, 2009 I see the bronzeye popper.Gotta love that bait. Nice fish man! Quote
Big Mike in Fl Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 thanks for the replies guys, That is my absolute favorite spot to fish on that impoundment, and really ranks up there with anywhere else I've fished. While its never produced a monster fish for me,it consistantly gives me a fun day, and thats what is important. and Big-O believe me when I say in most cases, I like being as big as I am, just sucks when I think I have a pic of a nice fish and it looks like a dink when all is said and done. oh well, such is life. Bass_fanatic, yea, I am definitely loving that bait, and for what ever reason I seem to get better hook ups than the original spro's Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 That is a solid 4lber no matter what man! You huys just keep on representing the EFF ELL!!!! ;D Quote
farmpond1 Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 The trick is to hold the bass waaaaay out in front of you. And wear vertical stripes. Nice job man! Quote
Dave D Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 I'm jealous! And BTW, I have that same problem with my fish looking small! :'( Quote

Volman482 Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 I feel your pain Big Mike but those are great fish, no matter who's holding them. Thanks for sharing. Quote
Fish Chris Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Come on Big Mike, just tell the truth..... Those fish are really only 2 lbs, but with you being the little bitty guy you are, it just makes these fish "appear" to be 4 lb'ers See, I'm onto your game now ! ;D Seriously though, nice fish Stay on em', Fish Quote
