The first push?  the locals are recovering from the tourist who just left 2 weeks ago. I stuck one on the first cast on this.  2 nights ago.

hey Mike,
could it be that the "It's OVAH,,,,,,,,,,,,,Extravaganza Tourney" is about to get fired UP?
due to a NAGGING and persistent work related (L) shoulder/elbow strain
and working 6-10's~~ i've only been striperin' TWICE since June!!!
coupla three nights ago, 'round the Other Cape, i landed my first keeper of this migration~ 29.50/35.5". injury SUX,,,,,,but it was the last night of The Cup, so i had to give it a go. that action seems to be right on schedule for my share of the Striper Coast. the bigguns should be right behind that sweet li'l belly filler.
am hoping to be able to 'represent' for the HABS and for the MS Tourney in Wkpg later in the season; the tear doesn't seem to hurt so much when i am offering eels??

WAIT!!!
29.50 pounds and only 35.5 inches. I never question you DAWG but Holy &*&% that fish would have to have been 35" around. 36" fish is usually around 20#. Always has been as long as I have been doin' this and that's coming up on 45 years.
You got a picture? I would love to see that fish. The fish in my avatar is 31# and 39 inches long.

i sort of agree with you on this one, Bill L~~
but that is what the scale(OTW certified weigh station) at Winchester's of GLSCTR showed and what they put down on the slip??
something about those ###'s seems highly suspect to me, also.
it felt more like a mid-thirties, next time i'm doing the measuring!!

So here is the weight chart:
Length 34" 35" 36" 37" 38" 39" 40" 41" 42" 43" 44"
Max lb 19.0 20.5 22.0 23.5 25.5 27.2 29.5 31.0 33.5 36.3 39.0
Avg lb 16.5 18.0 19.5 20.7 22.0 24.5 26.0 27.3 29.7 32.0 34.0
Min lb 14.0 15.5 16.8 17.5 19.0 20.7 22.0 23.0 25.0 27.0 29.0
Bass weight = (length x length x girth) / 1,200
35.5 x 35.5 x 28.5 /1200 = 29.40
So your bass had almost a 29"waist

that's why i weighed it, my man!! i'll bring the pink OTW slip to The Fest, what a noggin' on that cruiser, too!! i could not find the camera that night before i went out, but a friend of mine took a rigored-up shot before we cleaned it. there was nothing in her belly, weird, huh? this fish looked heavier on the water than she really was, no girth measurement, and she was a pig!! i had to get to work and was in a hurry to get her back on the ice.
i only kept her because i ALWAYS keep my first keeper of every year.
goes back to my Choctaw heritage and my thanks to God for providing me with a small portion of His Glorious bounty!!
am kicking my self for not being more thorough with the pix and a girth size, now that you mention it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
