I wasnt keeping them anyway. :biggrin:
Fishing yesterday in 55 degree water started out like I was fishing in 55 degree water or something :doh2: Couldnt find a bass to save my life. I knew it'd be slow...but c'maawwn.
The sun came out after lunch, and I found em :eyebrow: I surely never expected a day like this, this early and this cold.
Biggest one for the day, didnt measure him but I'm guessing 18 1/2 to 19 inches. He was real nice. I couldnt get him to straighten out for the pic, to show his size for nothing. Eyeballs the size of quarters :eyebrow:

Same fish below, I was trying to get his whole body and he kept curling on me.

Then several other catches before the air temps dropped back in to the 40's and it made for a nice day.

:yoyo: :yoyo: Looks like some nice healthy fish. Did you make those chatterbaits to?
No, no custom chatters :laf:
Chatterbaits are pretty basic, there's not a lot for options or alterations, and they are pretty cheap to buy.
I made my spinners cause I couldnt find them with the blades I grew to like, or with decent skirts and jigheads. :wink:
Nice looking fish..that 1st one has some shoulders on him :biggrin:
Who is that gray haired fella holding those nice fish. :biggrin:
If I ever make it back to the states I'll have to try that bass fishing again. :congrats:
Beauty's ! :yoyo:
:highclap: nice fish jim !
