Went to a friends Monday evening and after a nice meal Steve and I decided to go throw some lures in the water and see what happened.
Well about 15 miniutes into being there Steve catches into this 6 and a half pound Bucket mouth.

Not 5 minutes later Steve hooks into this 7 pounder.

Steve was a happy feller.
I didnt catch anything but it sure was fun watching him fight them in.
Holy crap!....someone been stocking that thing and taking good care of it. :yoyo:
That's a couple of hawgs there. :yoyo: Congrats to Steve. :highclap:
Nice bass for sure! :congrats: Did he release them?
WOW! Nice fish. :yoyo: :yoyo: I've got to get to Indiana. :biggrin: :biggrin:
Pat
WOW! :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:
Yep he released them.
We only cought three fish the whole hour we were there. That second fish was a real fight. We were casting to see who could get closest to the slide you see in the background. Steve had gotten the clossest at about 5 yards shy and on his first crank of the handel that bass hit. It took him several minutes to drag him across. That fish tail danced at least 3 times and was doing the best he could to break what ever he could. I was kicking myself for not having a video camera.
might have been only three but it was a great time. The third fish was a bluegill that He cought on the same lure he cought the bass on. Some cheap little lure he got from friend. The bass actually broke a barb off of both the trebble hooks.
:shock2: DANG !!
