Sorry no pics, but am camping at the lake and the other morning got up before the family and motored across the lake to catch a few bluegill for breakfast. Pulled in to the rock point and caught a few when I noticed a couple flopping on the bank!<br /><br />HMMM! Grabbed the Diawa with the Zara Spook and bounced it off the rocks and into the water. WHAM! 16 1/2 inch Largemouth. Not too bad. Release it and cast again, bouncing off the rocks. WHAM! Just shy of 18 inches! Not bad for 2 casts. He was released also.<br /><br />The bluegill were yummy!

Hmmmm, 18", I would say that would transfer to about 4#s I would guess.<br /><br />Nice fish.

Re: Nice bass!

Nah, LD, if you use LF's weighing system it was at least 13 1/2 pound! Thought about running back to the Marina to get it weighed, but wanted to get it back in the water quickly.<br /><br />Actually, you are probably pretty close, I would say a little under 4. Both gave a nice fight for a light/medium action Ugly Stick.
