After 3 trips out and only 1 fish in the boat, we finally got on them again. We did the same deal with the shad and caught some very nice fish! The only scale we had on the boat wasn't reading right, so we had to guesstimate the weight of the fish. They were all pretty good though, and two of the fish could've broke 10 lbs.
Blue eyes got her new personal best (TWICE)! She almost had one around 8 lbs, but it came unbuttoned by the boat. I'm a lucky guy to have a girl like her, even if she outfishes me sometimes

Yeah, good ol' lake nunya. The bite has been pretty slow on artificials, it is about time to start hitting up Varner and trying to hook up on some real hawgs

We caught the shad with a casting net. The hardest part is finding the school of baitfish first, then the rest is easy. I doubt that the shad will live in an aquarium. They are kinda dumb and they will swim into the corner of the tank until they die. They will live in a bait tank for a while, with the right chemicals and a steady temperature with a good airator setup.

Sorry about that. I know how to do it, it has just been faster for me to do it this was because of having to resize my pics first. I have just skipped loading my pics on shutterfly to shave a little time off my post. I will change my posting style, you are not the first person to say something to me about this. 8-)
Nice Hogs!
I just don't know which is prettier, the Bass or....................

Craigaria- Nice fish, I used to live in Madison have you ever fished @ Marben Farms (I think it is open to public now) We caught some tremendous bass there in the mid-eighties. Anyway Ive done lots of fishing in your area & its good to see middle Georgia represented here. Good Luck

Marbin farms is open to the public, it has been for around 15 years I guess. I fished there the day it opened when I was 16 years old, I think. I haven't fished there in a few years, but I am sure it is still good. Me and my buddy won a tourny there a few years back with one fish. 9lb 6oz. I loved lake margery and bennett, and the best fishing I ever had out there was on shepard, one of the smaller lakes with the handicap access. Lake Margery holds 2 of the biggest bass ever caught in GA. I bet it was the best fishing ever before it was opened up, you are a lucky guy to have fished there Thanks for the compliment on the fish! 8-)

Marben Farms is now called Charlie Elliott PFA. When I first got serious about fishing I learned how to do it there. My PB LMB came from Lower Raliegh pond. They have a free campground, so anybody looking for a great weekend getawy in the Covington, GA area ought to put it high on their list. I have alot of memories there. Now I've moved to the Cartersville area, so it's a long drive. I hope to make it this spring.
