Add moving water like in the picture or down the canal easily makes
a big fish bigger they just use their body like a keel and let the water do the rest ,, but a very nice fish in the photo and never really knew we had big bass in that part of the state good job

I actually had the other fish on a few days later after they shut the dam off. No current to speak of that morning and the fish felt much bigger than the one in the pic I got when the water was moving well.

Beautiful fish, but what really caught my eye was the scenery! I'm not asking for you to give anything away as far as a spot burn since I don't live anywhere close to you but what river is that?

I could fish that spot and get skunked and not care because it is just too pretty!

Kudos to letting her go make more kids!

That's the CT River. You would laugh if you had the expanded view. I am pretty much in the Ghetto. Or across the pond from it anyway.
