PB -- sort of...

WatterBoy · 06-20-10, 10:54 PM

Saturday night @ 9:00 -- new PB for me on this lake by 10 ounces (I've been fishing this lake for 10+ years) and 1 ounce short of my all-time PB. My first-ever 20" bass!

5lb 1oz, 20" length, 14" girth; Caught using a Yum Money Hound (3.5", Black Lab color)

Caught between a pocket of lily pads just off a reed point and a LONG ways from the boat; 7" Heavy rod with 50# braided line and it was all I could do to get her out of the pads and up to the boat

We also saw a few bald eagles and were able to get some good shots of one of them:

Congrats, those big fish are hard to come by anywhere and especially up north. Great shot of the eagle too!
