Caught this yesterday at Ray Roberts Lake. Dead even 6lbs, 22 inches. Started bass fishing about two months ago and I have been hooked ever since! No pun intended!

If I ever get this boat in the water I hope to catch some Bass as well.This lake (High Rock) has some nice trophy size fish but until now I haven't had a boat to get too them !

Same here, this is my first boat. Bought it two weeks ago. The lake we went to is a first time for me too. I wasn't expecting to pull anything out of this lake like this. I pulled a 3lber and 4 other bass out that day too.

When heading back the lake was complete glass and I was able to top my boat out of the first time. It was fun cruzin at 60 mph the whole way back!

Beautiful fish you caught there.

I agree, it is addicting. They are really starting to bed here (late) and the action is picking up.

Great looking bass. If your only 2 months into bass fishing, catching them like that, you will be calling in sick before long :D
