Didn't know the camera was invented yet when you caught that one.
All great momentos.

I was pre-fishing for a club tournament in early April back in 1982 I think, the small bass is a 6-1/2 lber and the large one was 9.2 and my largest in mass. I didn't have a camera back then, but was lucky enough to find someone that had one and was able to snap the photo before releasing them back near the head of the herring run where I caught them. That week we had 6" of rain and let's just say the tournament fishing wasn't anywhere near like that day. It was the most weight in the fewest casts I've ever had freshwater, four fish in maybe 8 casts in 40 feet of shoreline and 26 lbs total.

This had to be at least 30 years ago---first MV bass, or at least the first Vineyard keeper in the 36" era.

That's not my Waggy, though.

Moving forward about 8-10 years, a decent Canal bass from the mid-90s.

I'm thinking I'm about late 30s here.

20 years ago

13 years old. 1996. Braces. Canal. Pogie chunk. Awkward fish pose. Released (hook was in roof of mouth, hence the blood).
