Default Cant break 5 this year

First of all i cant complain i have had a good season so far.. BUT.. I cant for the life of me break 5 lbs this year. I have had some nice 4+ fish but nothing over 5.. I can only hope it will be like last year and ill get one in the fall.. My fishing partner hasnt broken 3 lbs this year so i cant complain i guess. with that being said ill leave with a pic of the biggest so far this year....

Very nice fish. Don't feel too bad. I barely broke 2# this year. And both times were my personal best.

Like you said, this Fall should produce some quality fishing. Here in the Midwest the bite is starting to pick up.

don't be hard on yourself, 5lbs is a very respectable fish. if you wanna break 5, head down south

Well, the past three years have been rough for me, havenīt caught a 10+ pounder but havenīt fished much either so I canīt expect miracles.

I'm not trying to rub it in, it is what it is. I mean, I've only caught 4 10lbs'ers in the last 3 years
