Those were some some catches there :icon_thumleft: I am not good at fishing at all, but I can sure eat them.

The last time I went fishing ran out of worms. Then I saw a snake with a frog in his mouth and I know they are good bass bait. Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in his mouth I grabbed him right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait bucket. The dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit. So, I grabbed my Quart jar of Shine and poured a little slug in its mouth. His eyes rolled back, he went limp. I released him into the pond without incident and carried on fishing using the frog. A little later, I felt a nudge on my foot. There was that same snake with two frogs in his mouth.

The above fishing story was courtesy of poorhunter78 ;D Sorry I couldn't resist.

Your catches were good though :icon_thumleft:

I've been an avid fisherperson all my life.

My fishing photos can be seen all over the web. They were "borrowed" by whomever. ;D

My personal favorites are panfish from small Michigan natural lakes. The ones where you can see bottom in 20 foot of water. Lakes where one has to carry one's boat in due to no launch sites (wild lakes).

Someday maybe I'll post links to some of the videos I've done.

Here's a picture or two of some "BULL BLUEGILLS" I caught last spring.

I go for Bluegills in the 11 to 12 inch range. I also fish just about everything else too.

Nice fish folks!

I especially like the Rainbow that took the Rapala.

Was it a count down or float?
And you must be on my side of TENNESSEE to be getting the bows eh?
