A quicky

[tx river rat]

At three o'clock I decided I was going fishing. I started loading and the wind started picking up. By the time I got on the water it was white capping pretty bad , I tried drifting and picked up one keeper channel.
It was just to rough so I went to the bank set out a couple rods for cats and then picked up my ultra light and tied a super frog on.
Nothing was hitting for 30 min or so ad then this bad boy hit.


He gave me all I wanted on that ultra light but I finally landed him
Thats a 28 quart cooler.
Fished on till dark with no more luck.

The cruiser is batting a thousand , so far every trip she has got slimed

If that was on the ultra lite you must have had fun .
If you need to take a trip the Devils river run has openings. I'm heading out wednesday.

Mick
It is a largemouth bass 8 1/2 lbs
Was a heck of a fight on an ultralight with 4 lb test line.
He was hooked deep and bleeding so I kept him and yep they eat good.
