LUCKY!!! Those are some of the fattest bass I've ever seen! Where you been hiding? Let me guess, Grounded?...LOL No not grounded I've just been very busy...It's not easy to maintain a 3 acer plot of land by your self. By that I mean my dad has had 5 back surgeries and can't do hardly anything meanwhile mom works so I do almost all of the property maintenance myself. Thanks for asking! I understand what you are talking about.. Great see you stepping up to help out though...

Gosh those bluegills wouldn't be hard to restore the colors as a taxidermist. Wow i can't believe how dark they are! Black!
If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Cecil, the water's very tanic. Most of the 1 to 2 pound BG I saw were very dark. The colors seemed more vivid in the smaller males.

We have lots of pics which are not up yet. Lots of storys . What a fishery -- a real enigma of the first order. Stubby Steve's went beyond the call of duty to get us a bunch of product to fish with. So did T J Stalings , the Richmond Mill folks were absoloutly great in all respects. Of course all of this was possible because of Bob and Pond Boss. There is a lot to this story yet to be told.

Omaha, that just is not right!Let the poor guy sleep will ya? Ahhh what the hell, did you paint him up? Or put his hand in warm water?
Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat and drink beer.

On the Ivory at Richmond Mill (the jazz Steinway) with sponsors Stubby Steve's , Pond Boss , TTI/ Blakemore and The King Fisher Society (Richmond Mill / Jim Morgan family). Thank you for an epic event.

Omaha, that just is not right!Let the poor guy sleep will ya? Ahhh what the hell, did you paint him up? Or put his hand in warm water? I tried that warm water thing in Boy Scouts. Didn't work. Really disappointed. Maybe an urban lengend? Had more fun in ANG summer camp. Duck taped a guy to his bed after he came in soused. Also put an empty beer can under each bed post before he came in. It really scared the hell out of 'em when the bed slams down.

Looks like a good time. Nice lake!
I'm curious. Are those electric outboard motors?

Yes they are electric motors. I believe they are similar to the motors in golf carts.

Here's me with a 2.25 lb. Bluegill:  Here's (2) pics of a 6 lb. LMB. The Boga Grip scales only measure by 1/4 lb. increments, so this would be my second 6 pounder:

Quietly motoring along with only the sound of the hull slicing thru the water and the wind whistling in your ear. Sort of like sailing, only easier. At 5mph it probably feels like you're flying. And I used to think that Jet boats were cool. Dang, I must be getting old.
