    For all you bass fisherman

    New state record smallie was caught not far from here, 9.98 lb's, 23.10" long, on a night crawler in the Indian River.
    The older I get, the better I was. I also forget my password and have to have Len reset it for me

    Dang! I've always said catching a five pound smallie is like trying to land a live otter. An almost ten pounder would be lie landing a mule!

    It's amazing how each inch over 20" seems to put another 3lbs on a smallie. That must have been a beast!
    If we all threw our problems in a pile, and you saw everyone else's problems-- you'd take yours back.

    I sincerely hope that fish is still alive and released.

    If you turn a dog loose to hunt – you’d better to be ready to deal with what he trees.

    Yep, I bet that guy has done one of two things with that fish.....it's either in the taxidermy shop or his belly.
