SteveP and I went to the legendary Stickmarsh today. It was a perfect December day.
Air temps in the mid 70's and a nice breeze.
Steve really knows this lake. He actually knows it so well that by 10 o'clock he had caught 10 bass to my 2. :-*
Kinda reminded of my first five trips here with a former member of the forum. :
Steve actually was gracious enough to lead with my end of the boat, so I had first crack at the new water for much of the day.
Anyway.
Every dog has his day, as the saying goes, and today was Avids.
NEW PB BAYBYYYYYYYYYYYYY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
7 lbs. 10 oz. only beat my former best by 2 ounces but hey, it's still bigger.
This was not the only chunk brought to the boat.
We landed 30 fish in a five hour trip for the two of us.
the 7-10, a 6, a 4.75 and several others came in around 4.
Here's the pictures dudes.
Hey..............how's the weather up there?
What can I say.
A great, and memorable day.
Lotsa laughs.......I mean laughs.
Avid taught SteveP the defensive tactic of hanging your rod tips over the end of the boat when your buddy is fighting a biggun. It didn't work, so I had to try it again.
I also gave SteveP a lesson on how NOT to ties knots.
It was ok though. It was his lure.....................................
Congrats Avid!!! ;D
That's a BIG 7 pounder.
That's great Avid. Congrats. You do pretty good for an old man.
Nice fish young man. I hope you were using your own rod, reel and LURE when you caught your p/b or it doesn't count.
Oh yea, we can only imagine how these pics woulda came out if Steve wasn't there.
wow. im speechless about the pic and the fish.
CONGRATS AVID!!

So what was the bait of choice?

Sweet. That does look like a big 7 pounder to me too. Not that I have seen a lot of bass that size.
Wow avid nice job on such a great day and the new pb. Also great job with the pictures... you actually used a camera . I wish I had a day like that while bass fishing.
Ho-Hum!!!! Yawn!!!! I do that in my sleep. Of course that's what I have to do now because there is a freakn inch of ice on everything and about 20 outside. That's how things are up here : :-[ :'(

What's up with you Stick Marsh guys. Do you all hate each other. I just had to delete a response from one of Keith's friends.
I banned poor Keith a long time ago because he refused to stop attacking one of our major sponsors.
If you have a problem with him you can go on that other site that has become overloaded with so many staff members that there is no room for regular members. I am sure he will be glad to respond to you.
Hey Avid,
I don't know how I missed this post for so long. Great fish and congrats on the new PB. That first pic is awesome.

I don't know about Keith, but maybe my new "big hairy mole" photoshop program had something to do with it. ;D ;D
