Nice fish!
Great catch. Looks like the Cordell Super Spot strikes again!
BTW - if where you fish is all sand - you might think about putting a small towel in your kit to lay your rod/reel on...

X 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice catches...! lets see 1 hr lunch= 45 min of fishing and 15 min of eating.....I like it!!! ;D
Your supposed to roll the fish in flour not sand.... LOL
Please catch and release responsibly.
THanks guys, I appreciate the comments.
All of those fish were released, I rarely keep any fish at all. When I do keep them, its not until the late summer months, and even then its nothing over 2 lbs.
I must say though, it's hard to remember to bring everything you need when you are fishing between work shifts. Much to my finger's dismay, I even forgot my pliers, my fingers bore the burden yesterday and got stabbed quite a few times
A towel is a great piece of advice though, I appreciate it a lot. It will keep the fish cleaner and the rods and reelsout of the sand. I don't feel like buying new Curados anytime soon
Quotecatch and release.know what your doing
Not sure what you mean or are inferring by that comment. Hopefully you catch and release as well.
Are you serious? You've got a bass you intend to release that looks like it's been rolled around in the sandbox.
Trust me, no one is impressed enough by a 3lb bass that you need to jeopardize it taking a picture.

VERY CLOSE Goose! Actually it was a Bill Lewis Rattle Trap, Chrome/Blue Back
The spinnerbait was a Northstar Custom Baits Pond Series in Shad with a YUM Money Minnow as a Trailer.
The 4+ was a Strike King Red Eye Shad. The Rattle Trap was lost to a bass that wrapped up in a tree and so I tied on the R.E.S. and it filled in nicely.

Not trying to impress anybody. Secondly, I dont worry about the slime coat as much as others, not after seeing numerous bass rub themselves on underwater timber and watching them tear their tails apart during spawn. The pictures were taken for an online tournament that I am in, they werent taken for your enjoyment. If I wasnt in the tournament, I wouldnt have placed them on the ground alongside my rod and reel for size verification and we wouldnt be having this discussion.
I'm sorry that you are offended because sand was on a fish in a photograph that I took. Please accept my apology for offending you.
Dude, learn how to handle your fish. This isn't catch and release. Its catch, abuse, release, and maybe live. Bass in the mud is bush league.
Here's a starter article for you: http://www.bassresource.com/fishing/fish1.html

Trust me...you're not offending me. Please just handle the fish in a responsible way that shows some respect for the sport.
Thanks for the link JFrancho.
PS, i think you meant Busch League. Nasty beer, just like those pictures I suppose
side story: Pine Wood Lodge is a camp ground in MA, and they have a pond where people fish.
When I was 12 I went there with a buddy and his father, and there was these kids that were on the aluminum dock pan fishing. then after they were done, they would place them on the dock, and kick them back into the water. i didnt know better but my friends father did. When we were heading back to dock from his jon boat, he cranked the trolling motor, and crashed into the dock and knocked these kids into the water. That lead to a fist fight the next night at the bon fire but that's another story. Moral: handle your fish right or someone might take offense.

No, I meant what I typed: http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-bush-league.htm
We have always called it Busch League. Not quite the same thing and their origins are seperate, but their meanings are synonymous.
http://www.*/define.php?term=busch%20league
Its "bush league," bro. In fact, urban dictionary says its bush league to correct a mods spelling. LOL
:D
You didn't read down far enough. In nascar, the Busch League was thought to be a sub-par league and so the term was often used to individuals familar with the league to describe sub-par actions . Your definition carries far more scope and historical reference for sure, but Busch League is a term used by many to describe something sub-par. Whats confusing is that it happens to have similar spelling and identicial phonics to your term.
Regardless, I appreciate the link you posted earlier, it is much appreciated.
Dude, "bush league" goes back 100 years. "Busch League" is what, 20 years old? And you are actually referencing the urban dictionary? LOL.
Nice fish Gangley. You're lucky to be able to get out there and fish at this time of year. I'm jealous...LOL
Good luck in your online tourny.
yeah really. Nice fish Gangley.. I'm sure the fish you caught were returned with no harm done..
PS... Busch is delicious

It also wasn't the Busch League in NASCAR. It was the BUSCH Series, or even more detail, the Busch Grand National Series.
And they didn't refer to subpar drivers as busch league, more apt to tell them to go back to being a saturday night special.
Thank you Jig and Central for noticing the OP and for your positive comments, I appreciate them.
As for the Busch thing...as long as your happy saying whatever you want, go for it. The Urban dictionary was the very first one on the list and was not picked for any other reason. I copied and sent the link, I didnt really care to pursue it further because it isn't as big of a deal as you and I have seemed to have made it. Thats my last comments on something that is a borderline discussion at best. Glad you found it humorous though (not being sarcastic).
Gangley, how is that online tourny set-up? That sounds like it would be a lot of fun. Just curious.
With all the breading on the first one all you had to do was throw it in the deep fryer.

Mmmm, sand-battered bass.
