Oh, and I keep my camera in a plastic box and under cover all the time, it only gets wet while acually taking the picture. Which isn't often enough. [biggrin] :scratch: Image
Yeah, well, this camera is an underwater camera but still, I kept it under my console until it was time but the wind was blowing and it was pouring and, well, you know the rest.

I guess I could have put my fish in the boat seat, haha, like some guys around here. Come on, I am waiting to see another all kicked back in your boat [biggrin]

Went out to a new lake this past week. First time fishing it stuck 7 largemouth. Best 5 went in the 20-21# range. Caught fish on three different presentations. Spinnerbait, skipping a jig under trees, Using a punch rig to punch threw reeds.

Those are some nice fish though! I need to get back out after some bass.

Fear no fish. Its a saying meaning the best 5 fish out of my 7 weighed a combined 20-21# which would mean about a 4# average.

the symbol " means inches: 21" is twenty-one inches

and # means pounds: 21# is 21 pounds

[biggrin]


Oh ya, - means oz and . means decimal as in;

21-7 is 21 pounds and 7 oz

21.7 is 21 pounds and 7/10 of another pound.

Double fisting two fat prespawners.

I'd like to get on Tapps someday — it was good ol' Lake Whatcom, though.
