Huge South Florida Bass

[Bassn Blvd]

My brother took his girlfriend bass fishing yesterday and this was her first bass she ever caught. He didn't weigh it, but I'm sure it's well over 10 pounds.

That is a fat hawg!

Thanks for the kind replies. She caught it in a private 75 acre shell rock pit that's been closed for about 10 years. I was lucky enough to obtain permission to fish it anytime I want.

This is the 3rd bass over 10 pounds that I've seen come out of the pit, unless all three were the same fish, which I doubt.

I fish almost everyday and lately all I get are dinks. But her first bass is this?

First thing I thought was that it had to be the famous rock pit you've been telling me about, Doug.

That is one ridiculous fish. What an awesome catch.

I was wondering how long it was going to take for you to chime in, Eric. You need to get your ars up here and lets go already. The big girls are hungry.

If you like to fish live bait, belive it or not, but bluegill outfish shiners 5 to 1. And bass out fish the bluegill. I've had more huge bass chase and try to eat bass up to 1-2 pounds than I can remember.

Yeah yeah I know. Been busy lately. Just picked up a decent job that I need to build and ship to New York. Going to be nothing but work starting on Monday. I'll shoot you a PM sometime tomorrow.

Beautiful dish...........................I mean fish.

[roadwarrior]

Wow!

What a great way to start.

[piscicidal]

Wow...many people would be surprised how difficult it is to catch DD bass in south Florida. Central/north Florida more conducive to the big girls. To catch a DD as a first fish is amazing. It's all downhill from here... :-)

[hookingem]

Was this fish caught on live bait? Awesome fish!

[RoLo]

now thats a keeper! nice fish too

I'll drink to that

[WdyCrankbait]

Very nice catch

No. She caught it on a small swimbait of some sort. I wasn't there but my brother told me she was standing a few foot or so behind him. My brother noticed out of the corner of his eye that her rod tip was bending. He thought she snagged

the hydrilla so he turns to help. There she was, jus turning the the handle but gaining no line. LOL, my brother was like "I don't understand, I coulda swore I tightened that grag down". He realized she had a fish on and started coaching her. (You guys know how it is "Be careful, hold your rod tip up, don't horse her now, look out for the rocks "

After she got'er in, he had to show her how to hold it because she hasn't ever held a fish either.

[bassfisherjk]

Awesome.Congrat's!

[Fishing Cowgirl]

Awesome first catch! Sooooooo what kind of swimbait?

[Quillback]

A beautiful gal holding a big bass, gotta love it!
