Bout to school

Here is the truff. Pulled cranks for about 27 hours strait. Then out of nowhere....... Bam! Fish on! Could it be the 3 lber I've been searching for?

Pretty bad when this gets you excited.

beats nothing :)

Here's where the REAL story begins. I started long lining some jigs and swim baits for a bit. I trolled to and from all over the place. Just as I was getting ready to pick up and go, it happened... My pole bowed over and just about flew out of the boat! "Stay clam" I told myself. So I set the hook. Wow! This joker is heavy. Not sure if it is a crappie at this point, but whatever it is, IT HAS SOME MUSSELS!! So I continued to fight with it, for what felt like an eternity until I got it to the top of the water.. I couldn't believe my eyes. Certainly the biggest one I'd ever caught, ever.

The first of many days Butla will get ya....but when that day comes ...ya will forget about those bad days

i heard it was WBs old boot

I ain't gonna say I told you so, but I told you so. And it would be just plain rude to say I called it before it even happened.

Wannabe...

Hit it like a 20 lb hammer I tell you! Get it? Clam down.. Mussels...:D:D:D

Don't let the picture fool you. That joker still had some fight in him. FYI, caught him on a chartruse swim bait in about 8 ft of water. Bite was kinda slow, but it was well worth the wait.
