hey fellow fishermen, thought i would share my first Bass of the summer, tried different spots but no luck only catfish they were decent size but not what i wanted. i started losing hope and was ready to hang up my rod intill a friend from work took me to his spot and you can see thw results of that.. very proud guy

Huge smallie!  I was having the same problem this summer, until a friend told me about his little spot....and if you look at my gallery, you will see the result ;)

nice fish not to nag on u but u don't need to hold him in the gills grab him by the lower lip firmly next time.  It is understandable to hold a pike or walleye in this manner without a net because of the teeth but not necessary for bass.
