On Saturday afternoon once the rain let up, we headed out again, this time to a different lake. Andrew loves catching bass, so he decided to mix it up and go somewhere else.
Well, it wasn't long and I snagged a tiny little large mouth, this was a good sign because the little guys always bite first, we just had to be patient. In the end, it paid off. I netted a 3.5 lb large mouth that jumped out of the water 3 times before coming into the boat. At first, I didn't even realize I had a fish. You see, I'm the snag king at any lake, and I thought I had a stick on the line. The fish was swimming with the line. That changed once he got hooked though. That's when the fight was on. I brought him home and cooked him up, but I'm just not that big of a fan of largemouth bass. It's pretty bitter tasting and nothing really kills it. From now on, it's saugeye, white bass, or striped bass only that's going on my plate! No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to get into the southern catfish craze. Maybe someday!
