Launched at O dark thirty in search of large mouth on top waters. That didn't pan out so I started targeting the tigers. The first hit I had was from a tiger that looked to be about 24 in he missed my bait so I immediately threw back to see if he would hit it again. That fish didn't but another one did, I landed this one and it measured 34 in. At this point I considered this a very good day, one miss but a follow up leading to a bigger fish. Yeah for me. I continued with the same pattern and ended the morning with 3 more tigers two at 31 in and one at 33 in. All but the last came out of shallow water, that one came out of 10 ft and slammed my bait hard. I did catch 6 large mouth but none were more than 1 1/2 lbs. One of these days I will actually have to figure out how the timer works on my camera so I don't always have the same dumb look on my face while hold ing both the camera and a fish.
