4 pound 6 ounce smally caught on the Tinboats Dale Hollow trip in October. Actually, my first smally ever. Not a bad way to break into a new species, the way I figure.

5 pound, 2 ounce hybrid, caught out of Lake Allatoona back in March.

6 - 7 pound largemouth out of Allatoona in March. Had no scale with me. It is for sure a 6, but within a week, I know two other people who both caught 7 pound 2 ounce fish out of the same lake, and both claim mine is every bit as big as either of theirs.

22" flounder, caught in the Intracoastal waterway.

Dad and me, both with personal best speckled seatrout, caught within a minute of each other, in the Intracoastal. (Both fish are curved, as they were larger than the cooler)

1st photo: Smallie caught last year (not my pb but a nice one!)
2nd photo: Caught this one when I was still in High school and it weighed right at 10lbs.

Lol, good eye! :lol: . I never had a chance to put it on. After getting the fish to the boat, it attempted to go under the boat (again), and I had all the slack out of the line, so the fella I was fishing with got him for me with the grip when I got the fish alongside the boat.

Glove? You got to fill us new guys in on that...

Dang guys look like we are the hog masters.

Hopefully I'll be able to add a few new ones here shortly. I have a few ponds that I fish that have produced some 10 lb plus fish. A fella I meet recently that does almost nothing but trophy fish, showed me a couple of spots that he has seen some fish that may go 13 lbs or better. I trust this guy based on some of the fish he has hanging on the wall. Believe you me, if I snag one of those girls there will pics splashed everywhere.

Now just where did you say those ponds were located....Taking notes here I need longitude and latitude and where the dog crosses the road in front of the 3rd barn on left by the big oak tree.... :lol: :lol: .....JIGGY

It's funny you say that these are the directions I was given for the most recent double top secret spot.
"ya go down past the deer processor and do a u-turn, not right there at it the cops watch that spot and ya aint supposed to do a u-turn right there, ya gotta go a little piece, you'll see. Then your gonna comeback about 2/3's of a mile and pull off where the guardrail starts. Go down in there and you'll see the path that goes back to pond it's about 75-80 yards back in there. Gotta carry the boat and gear, but it's worth it."

Lol, I normally wear a neoprene fishing glove when gripping the fish, as I don't have much grip due to arthritis. Hurts like he!! to try and lip 'em a lot of times.

Lol, the one in the pic I posted is swimming around somewhere at Audubon Park in Henderson. :wink:


Oh, you'll know if it's the one I caught...................I put my name on him with a Sharpie, lol. J/K

Both of these were caught on public reservoirs on the same day on two different reservoirs (I fished half the day on one then went to the next one and fished til sun down!)
