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.

I know you cant tell by the picture, but those are eggs coming out of her.. and she didnt have many left inside, no belly.

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....

Name that old, skinny fish with one eye and two hooks in her mouth "Lucky" and let her go!

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.

I think I would have named her "Dinner"
