I caught this 48 inch long LM yesterday evening." Note the 5 ft fishing rod in my right hand as a comparison.

How is the salad in the water hole doing? It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

The water is clear down to 7 or 8 ft and the good old Texas moss is growing from those depths. At least the babies have some were to hide from the evil LMB's.
