    That one is only the 3rd or 4th one on a fly. With regular gear and soft plastics, fishing for bass, I catch them a little more frequently. They don't make long runs, as you can see on the video, but they keep surging away when you get them close to the boat. Makes them fun to catch, and with every surge, the chance they'll break off or shake the hook increases.

    With their mouthful of teeth and strong bite force, they tear up lures.

    Yes they are a mean tough looking and fighting fish. I've caught them bass fishing as well. They will smash a top water bait.

    Since Vett brought up the weather on the shout box ... I thought I'd bring it up here.
    Cool start to the morning, but it'll be 77 by this afternoon. And the forecasts are for another warming trend through the weekend and into next week.
    I've spent the last several weeks getting things cleaned up and settled around the house.

    I should have some fish pictures tomorrow, after spending some time chasing sunfish for the freezer !!!

    This morning was a Crappie time! I only had a few hours on the water, but it was Crappie the whole time.
