last night at the canal...

...nothing but schoolies. They're well fed and feisty, but still schoolies!

I am a legend in my own mind!

28 inch blue sucked down a pencil without a splash and nearly pulled me over at 630 am. Nice fat fish, nice fight and ran down and against the current. Other than that just 24 to 26 inch bass. But there is always tonight or tomorrow. Still expect a surge or 2 of good bass. Bill

29 inch bass this am. Everything else out of range. Measured her as I take scale sample from 10 bass per month for the division of marine fisheries which counts the growth ring's on the 5 scales I send with the measurements. Length to age helps determine the strength of the stock and growth rates etc.
