Went out last night and had a good 2 hours. Best 5 came in at 23lbs anchored with a very skinny 28". She had already spawned. Water temperature Sunday afternoon was 52 degrees. Last night it was 65. I have not seen one sign they are bedding, this fish was caught in 16ft of water. She was blind in one eye and had two other hooks in her mouth.

My guess is that she has probably not spawned yet, it looks like she has been thin for a while.

It could just be that she is an old LMB nearing the end of her lifespan, it could be that she has a stomach obstruction or parasites.

how old and how large is your pond? Did you stock that bass? How old would you say she is?

I agree with Shorty - old and skinny.

Old, skinny, and one-eyed....


Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:"
"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

There was a three legged doe in my neighborhood.

My 10-year old daughter named it 'Hope.'

I think we're all far more interested in what Sunil named her.
