Been out on the lakes in the nice warm sunny weather a few weeks ago here! Took part in a bass derby last Sat but never managed to catch the lunker needed to win  :P
There's always a bigger fish... and I'm going to get it!

Buddy belly boated Sat on Dragon and I we went on Sun. Fishing was decent from noon till 3 then had to get home to watch the nucks loose. lots of fish in the 3-3 1/2 pound range. Blue chromie chironomids hatched like crazy sat. had most of our luck on a black micro leech and dragon fly nymphs.

I got my Iceshanty certificates today with a sticker- they look pretty good- well done..

Fished Cobb lake, fishing was kinda slow- only 4 fish caught between us...
Bring on the soft water!!!
