Another Great Bull on the Tabbert Grass Shrimp
"I'll be tying up some more grass shrimp since my box is void of them."
Do you love big bluegill?
The Only Thing Missing Was Pizza And Beer
I was at a local boat ramp early last season, fishing. The area racing-boat club was holding their Spring regatta there, too. Loud engines, fast boats and hot babes.
Oh, yeah.
Once all the boats sped off, things quieted down and the crowd dispersed... and I unleashed a #2 Super Duper on the waters around the ramp.
BANG!!! A nice bass nailed that classic old spoon.
I'd rigged light and the fish put on a nice aerial show. Several of the bikini-clad race babes were still around, and saw the fight.
They ran over to watch. They shrieked and they "ooohed" and they shouted, "Look, he's got a REALLY big one!!"
For a few minutes, one nice Spring day, I was a god.

Good story! Closest I got was fighting a spec in front of the Hummocks State Park ferry and getting a rail full of bikinis to watch me lose it at my feet.

Sadly, no pics.
Probably best to rely on imagination anyway....
Too much trouble comes when evidence is floating around.

The 'trouble' is...
My imagination deletes you from the photo. Fish and Babes... That's it. Sorry friend. LOL
(ps, And at my age... in that order)
