WOW what a day at the coal pit.

[macgyver]

Well I had to catch some fish today, since the last week and a half has been pretty poor by my standards. I got spoiled again today. I really haven't found any lake/reservoir/river that has as good of bass fishing as the coal pit. I went out with the intention of praticing my pitchin and flippin, even though I really don't have a rod or reel for it. I was doing OK, but the weeds were the snot weeds, so they just kept sticking to everything with a weight. I did however hook into and land the biggest Bass of my life today ;D 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) My scale is still dead so I don't really know the weight, but it was 24 inces in length, and had a nice belly on her. I've caught lots of five pound bass, but this was bigger than that. Just a guess, I would say 6.5 lbs. She worked me out getting her to the net I was so tickled I start whooping real loud(probably sounded like Mike I). If anyone was around they surely thought I had gone crazy. I also didn't have the camera since my wife just took it to Cancun with her on vacation :P I released her immediately. I then went on to catch another 26 bass, of all shapes and sizes, the biggest other than the first was probaly 3lbs, and lots of 2lbers. Also a lot of dinks. I missed probably another 10, of which 2 I'm sure were gar, since my bait just got ripped in half, which is what they always do :P I gotta stay away from the coal pit, it's just too much fun, and spoils me rotten everytime I go. Anyway, everyone should have a private coal pit to fish, it's the greatest :-* I just wish they would have a tourney on it
