SDoolittle Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 When I was a kid, I always used to ask to go fishing on my birthday. My parents always said that it was too cold for fishing, and I never went. I turned 38 years old on 22 Dec 2011, and for the first time in my life, I went fishing for my birthday. I only got to fish for about an hour, and I only had one bite, but I made it count. You can't really tell from the pic, but the bass weighed roughly about 3 1/2 lbs. Happy birthday to me! Quote
Super User Goose52 Posted January 5, 2012 Super User Posted January 5, 2012 Lot of us have soft water now when often the lakes would be iced-over - ain't it great! Nice fish - congrats on the catch ! Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 5, 2012 Global Moderator Posted January 5, 2012 Nice fish! I'm another one of the lucky guys enjoying soft water when I would normally be starting to check to see if the ice is thick enough to walk on yet! Quote
bassman31783 Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Awesome. Congrats on a nice catch on a cold day. Happy belated birthday. Quote
jeremyt Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 I bet it being the first birthday trip made it even more gratifying. Nice job! Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted January 6, 2012 Super User Posted January 6, 2012 Nice birthday present. I always try to hit the water on my birthday. Makes for a great tradition. Quote
