Rippinglips Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Thanks shane. It felt good trust me. Ima have to keep producing this color jig they couldnt leave it alone today the were killin it. Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted July 4, 2011 Super User Posted July 4, 2011 Good day. Its kinda cool catching a big bass that's blind in one eye. Just goes to prove they are still eating. Quote
Rippinglips Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Yea dwight she was hungry. She short striked and missed then came back and inhaled it on the second time around so she was definately eating. Quote
Big-O Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Beautiful Fish and Congrats to both of you on the new PB... When one of my friends catches a biggun with me, I'm equally as proud just to have been there to witness it and share the excitement! Real Friendship Stay after'em you two!!!

Tallent88 Posted July 4, 2011 Author Posted July 4, 2011 I feel the same way ijust seeing some experiance that samejoy and excitment is crazy good day and it was a blast hopfully our club tournement next week will go as well as yesterday Quote
Rippinglips Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 Thanks big o. Words couldbt describe it. Esp on the jig I made the night before. It was grwat Quote
hookingem Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 That fish was in the slot at briery. I think the slot is 14-24in. and only 1 over 24in. So it would be illegal to weigh that fish in a tourney. Not trying to be a downer, just trying to keep you from getting into trouble on tournament day. Regardless awesome fish and congrats on the new PB! Quote
Rippinglips Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Fish was actually out the slot limit. It was 25 and 1/8 inches long. She was super long and skinny for her length Quote
Rippinglips Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 And its illegal to have tournaments at briery for prizess anyway lol. Quote
Tallent88 Posted July 5, 2011 Author Posted July 5, 2011 I verify the 25 inch fish if you don't fish just ponds you don't get the same cookie cutter fish we fully understand the rules and regulations at briery creek we wouldn't have live welled this fish to take pictures if it was 23 and 15/16 I fully believe in preserving the fishing at briery and doing things with in the limits of the law on the water don't mean to offend anyone but for you to say we boated and illegally brought a fish withen the slot to shore is quet a statment to assume :-( the game wardens are at briery very often so fyi to anyone taking fish in the slot is illegal and you will be ticketed Quote
Tallent88 Posted July 5, 2011 Author Posted July 5, 2011 do you just fish mainly private ponds if not you should come out soon Quote
Tallent88 Posted July 5, 2011 Author Posted July 5, 2011 I know you have a nice boat and stuff just never hear about you going out anywhere but pochahantas or the small ponds around here we all need to get togetheri missed the va meet and greet but no better place than briery Quote
Tallent88 Posted July 5, 2011 Author Posted July 5, 2011 caught another chunk on one of rippinglips jigs yesterday b4 rain will have to put pictures up later 1 Quote
hookingem Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 In no way was I trying to be confrontational I was just letting you know so you didn't have any problems with the game warden ect. If the fish was 25in I stand corrected . And I fish wherever I can one day that might be a pond next day that might be the river for smallies next it might be the Chic. I'm just fishing to have fun and weather I fish in a puddle or the ocean I'm doing something I truly enjoy to do. Quote
Tallent88 Posted July 5, 2011 Author Posted July 5, 2011 nor was i but I guess I took it wrong thought you stated the fish was in the slot and we illegally livewelled the fish either way I think the va guys need to do a summer meet and greet soon! 1 Quote
