I'll play Theo's game:
6 LMB hooked (5 landed) in 5 straight casts.

Four straight casts = 4 different fish (lmb, bg, gsf, crappie) using the same bait ( red rooster tail)..
Just do it...

How in the world did such a little boy land such a big fish???? Did you eat it or put him back? Very cool.

Nice Catfish.
7 LMB in under 7 minutes. I caught all of them on the same brush pile in consecutive casts. it was pretty fun although they were all 11in or under So they all ended up in the cooler. That was the first year that I started harvesting LMB from the pond.
as far as size goes 8lb CC.
