Never Know If You Don't Look

The Chucko was in true form last week. After Mike, Matt and I got skunked on the pond, we started looking around at the nearby stream that feeds the pond. In this concrete valve box we spotted a bass. After dropping three flies in to get it, it finally took it! Well kinda, but Matt hauled it in. I knew he wouldn't give me the pics off his camera because he is not proud of this, but I am. It was a good bass too, probably around 5lb's. So top 3 pictures are from phone. The bottom two are from another trip a few days before the epic canal fish.

Had a piece taken out of its back.

Mustache and all.

The Love Boat

Matt and I headed out for a couple of hours to chase the old bucket mouths a couple weeks ago. We discovered that the fish weren't hanging on the edges like they had been before, but that they had moved out to the middle of the lake and were under the weeds and such. We decided to borrow one of the many boats docked at the boat dock, and the boat we scored was a cute little paddle boat. We couldn't get a cute picture of the both of us in there, but believe me it was, lol...........

I did score the biggest bass of my lifetime or the rest of Matts. It measured 20" I didn't get girth but it was chunky, so I'm guessing 7sh at least.

With daylight savings time giving us a little extra light at night after work me and the original crew took off for a reunion tour of some good ol bass fishing. We started on a local farm pond and had some fun with some miniature bluegill and bucket mouths. Before we ran out of light we found a pond that we new would have some hungry bass, but we never expected them to be this hungry. After the bumpy 4wd road, we found schools of monster bass ready to eat whatever we threw at them. We caught bass after bass no fish weighing less than 4lb's and the bigger ones had to be at least 7lb maybe pushing 8lb's. It was what you call an Epic day on the pond. It was good to get out with the original crew and have some of the best fishing you could have in a couple of hours. All pictures were taken on our camera phones we weren't expecting anything like this, so we left the real cameras at home. There were many more pictures, but I decided to leave a few out, we probably had about 20 pigs to hand in the 2 hours. As you'll see I grabbed the only hat I had in my truck had to keep it gangsta.
