He Really Wanted It!

Was throwing a Ned Rig in hope of some bass tonight. Felt a thump and the line got heavy. Thought it was a bass at first, but could feel from the vibrations coming down the line that it was a gill. But man, did it put some nice bend in the medium action rod I was using. The fight was almost as good as a bass!

So I put down my bass rod and just fished for gills. It was another good night.

Not a bad way to end the day.

+1 on that, SK. That first one was a real bruiser! Location was a huge plus. Beautiful.

Those are some healthy looking fish, thanks for sharing.

someone either been trot lining in there or tossing used trot line bait back in there ?

Nice looking fish there. Downsizing has its merits, also there are some times when a larger size offering will get those better fish. Congrats!

Good eyes! Not sure what happened to that Shellcracker.
