andyd I decided to go out on the lake this morning and I'm glad I did even though it was breezy. It started out slow with a few one pound bass caught right up against the shoreline. I worked several areas that normally produce results and then headed for to spatter docks. I worked one side with no luck and decided to move down the line. I stayed about 30 feet out from the spatter docks and was casting into the very edge. The first cast brought a strike. I casted a few more times in the same area and then B A N G!!! hooked one. I knew it had some size to it so I slowly tired it out. When I got him next to the kayak I pulled him onboard. Made my day :-) He measured in at 20.5 inches.
andyd Thanks folks! Seems like the fish gods have been looking down at me lately! I've always been used to catching the little guys so lately this has been a tone of fun!! All catch and release. Let 'em get bigger!!!

andyd Thanks bassassin201!! I know it's catch and release right now but catch and release is my policy all the time :-)
bassassin201 Wish we all had the same mentality as far as Catch n Release goes . I always do too . Not.even if it ws a Whopper n Mount worthy , Snap a few shots get some measurements n let em go . I don't fish for the record books I fish for the Love of the sport and the Beauty of all that comes with it . I clean up too , take my butts if I have a smoke , I always try n make it a little nicer then how I found it .

andyd We think a lot alike. There's one pond I fish in that looked like a dump on the shoreline. A month ago I took to large leaf bags and filled them with trash. Thought maybe people would get the idea that they should not leave their garbage. Didn't work. I went back to the pond two weeks later and there was trash everywhere.
