Thanks Mark and Jeffrey. Back years ago before I left my BG fishing to chase after smallmouth my brother in law and me had found an area on lake Guntersville that consistently held some quality copper nose but since I hadn't been actively pursuing them for over 30 years since my return to my roots I hadn't been able to locate them.

Nice Gerome....these are quality coppernose in my opinion.........I bet there is some trophy fish where these were caught! Good luck...............

Thanks Dick, Carl and Slip Sinker for your comments.  I did have fun with the fish today. I was so hoping to hit the 10" mark and came "oh so close" - maybe next time! Carl, I don't know about that Fly Fishing but we'll see. I'll just have to make a trip with you and see how a master does it!!!
