new PB in Michigan also !!!!
I was looking at that beauty that WIBassmaster caught and posted on today...must be a good day in the upper-midwest. I told my Bro-in-law I seen these 2 fish circling some pads but I assumed they were carp, cuz they were WAY to big to be bass. I then siad "Holy *%#*, those are bass!!!!" SO I grabbed my senko-rigged pole and flipped it about 3 ft. ahead of them in the direction they were heading and I lost visual contact, let it fall and gave it a slight tug, felt like I was snagged on something, then it tugged back!! lol.. It was on a light weight pole and line so was a nice lil fight to get her in the boat. Strange thing was it's swimming partner which was at least 18" also stayed right next to the fish I caught almost the entire fight!!! It was like he was saying to the other, "Where ya going?? Why are you swimming so oddly?? was it something I said?? " LMAO it was really something to see.
The LM measured 21 1/2 in. and weighed about 4 1/2 lbs. Congrats again to WIbassmaster on his catch, we don't see many LM that size up here!!!
