Super nice evening to fish, fighting the wind a little bit but over all an outstanding evening. I give it a 4 becasue it is hard for me to get out on the water for some REAL bassin. Anyhow, made first cast at 5:15 and fishing till aroung 8:15. My buddy and i always make a bet, one doller for first fish,biggest, and most. Well he cought the first one while i was motoring over to the area we wanted, he also got the numbers but i managed the big one. It went 4.13lbs. I also landed 3 fish in the 3lb class and a couple in the 1-2 pound class. All on sinkos. Can not wait for a couple of weeks for the top water action to pick up. We are planning another evening fish then. Talked to a guy fly fishing and we was killin um, another guy was there since 8am, holy crap that is a long time, he had 20 some fish but was looking for the 4lbers and up he said. another guy out there had good numbers, both cranking. Here is a funny side note: The larger fish in the picture, when he hit i set the hook and felt the head shake and new it was a nice one, then all of a sudden not much action and i seen a lot of long littly pads on the surface, well we were a little bit stumped for a few seconds but came to relize that the fish riped the line throught them and probably 15 huge stemes/pads came a float. pretty cool i though. Never seen that one before.
