BearRaid: "Nice bass Mike! I doubt they get much bigger than that out of the river."


Thanks! Anything 18 inches or bigger out of the river is considered a trophy around these parts.

Nice fish...


Mike here is a Largemouth I caught on a Z-man paddle tail (6-7” long), dragging over the deep weed edge a few few weeks ago. Don’t know if ya remember but caught one last year about the same size on the same lake using your Zman fluke technique over medium weed edge.

Thanks Mike!

Those are really nice smallies!! But, they look like 15lbs. when you hold them that far away from your body:) What were the lengths?"



The biggest was just shy of 22 the small one was 21.

I'll see your two smallmouth with my 2 am.
And I'll raise you a bluegill and ring perch and northern.


I caught about 40 smallys next to my foot one day ... all with leech and split shot and HOOK
Used fly rod and poppers
And floating jointed rapalas.

Ring perch? You must live on or next to the Mississippi.
