OT ... still have the touch
« on: May 16, 2005, 08:32:09 am »
This past weekend we did a little bass fishing.  The conditions were right...  at the right place at the right time !  ( And a good friend to fish with)  One of those rare occasions that really makes it worth the efforts.

To make a long story short we brought home several keepers.  One of them was close to my all time personal record here in this part of the country for large mouth.  This one was just over 6 Lbs.  My  personal record for large mouth in the Missouri area is 7 lbs. 2oz  (In some states like Texas or Florida  that size is common place).

At any rate the last few week ends we have been busy with the ol' bass rods insead of working on modeling  ( for those who I have promised to work on a project or two ...   sorry !  But I needed the break. )

Just thought I'd share with my buds the good news ....   back to work now !

Even here in Tx. 7+ lbs. is still a really nice fish! Not at all "common place". Except, possibly, for a fishery like Lake Fork. Good going, man. 8) :thumbsup:
