This one absolutely hammered a pencil at the end of my cast. It pulled pretty hard and I thought it was gonna be a bit bigger. Fun all the less.

Nice way to start the season!

Nice fish, especially in April!

Agreed. Every year Mikey posts a nice early season river bass. That sound was the starter's pistol!

actually I do. :devil2:

Nice catch Mikey, congrats

Yeah, great fish ...

nice early fish. What is that dark red fungus/weed looking substance near his top fins? is it a fungus or weed of some kind?

Nice keeper Mikey. Usual recipe?

The pic doesn't do it justice. I'm pretty sure it was not a holdover, because it was very clean looking. That is just a little mud by the fins. My fishing buddy really wanted the fish so I let him keep it. I'm not sure how he'll prepare it, but I know I'll be over for dinner that night.

very good Mikey! 78#'s???

Nice fish. I know that spot. :)

Buds on the trees, flowers starting to poke, Bald Guy posting early season stripers. Yep, Spring is here.

Way to go Mikey

I have had fish at that area for 3 weeks.......... the background even blurred out is a dead give away.
