Caught my first 10lb fish!!! Local lake here in Arkansas
Sweet!! Nice catch!
Now that's a HAWG! Give us the details.
congrads man not everyday you catch a 10 pounder how did you catch in fill us in
Ok I guess I can tell.. lol
I started out the morning at 6:45. It was little cool but the water temp was 53.6. Last week at this public lake I caught 25 small bass in 2 hours on this blue jerkbait.
The past week has been cold and rainy, so I decided to start off with this same bait. First cast I caught a small one, under a pound. Second cast another small one, I was like looks like dink day lol
Third cast I landed on the edge of a stump, I really thought I was going to hang one of those treble hooks in it, so i gave it a small jerk and paused for like 10 seconds or so. I was just thinking how I didn't get hung up there and BAM!
FISH ON... She went straight to a deep water stump and ripping drag, I was thinking maybe 7 to 8 pounds, till I got it close to the boat. I swear you would of thought IKE was on the lake
Ended up with 14 fish all small but 2 a 10lber and 3.5lber.
You know people ask me all the time how do you fish so much, After I caught her i was shaking for at least 30 mins. Thats the reason I fish!!!!
BTW I let her GO!!!!
Looking at getting a Replica mount.
WOW! Nice catch!
I hope to join you this year with my first double-digit!
What was the actual weight or did you estimate the weight? That is a big jerk bait bass!

Congrats! Those monsters sure are smart, it's most likely the pattern of stopping for 10 seconds before reeling that caught the sucker, not many people will have the patience to stop that long.
I just hope 1 day I catch a hawg like that.

congrats!!! I know how you mean about the shaking. I caught an 11.2 last year (June 2012) and I could not fish afterward. My advice is enjoy it. For me at least it does not happen every day or every year for that matter. My last double digit before that was spring 1996. I released mine back as well it was hard to do at first, but once I did it I was glad.
Keep on smiling you deserve it. Great pb on a jerkbait.
a real beauty there. amazing fish and great pic. all the more amazing to me since i can't seem to catch a thing on jerkbaits.
Awesome fish man! Way to go, cool story too.
Nice man! My PB was my best day of fishing by far. I can't wait to break 11.3 lbs. I GOT to!
Impressed. Good job. May this be the first of many.
Awesome fish there. Big congrats!!!
Awesome fish!
Congrats. Great accomplishment.
Sheesh, Thats a hawg!
WOW!
Great fish, great pic!
Outstanding!
I have caughten several double digit fish.... In my case the decimal point is in a different spot....
Nice ... that's a fish of a lifetime up north. WTG!
Kudos for putting her back too!
Kudos to you on getting your first double digit! That is a massive fish.
congrats. awesome catch. i am still hunting for my first double digit fish as well.
Beautiful Fish, WTG and Congratulations
Wow what a Monster!!! I might be throwing my blue jerk bait around some stumps in the near future....
.
Nice one
Awesome fish!! I was shaking and went a little Ike after my 8lber yesterday. I wonder if all the screaming is what attracted the other bass boat that morning hahaha. Congrats man!!!
Awesome, congrats
Beautiful fish, Congrats!
