{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Lake Of Monsters

Sweet fish Collin!  Largemouths sometimes seem like they have personalities when they fight. I swear some understand that if they give up they will get reeled in and released faster.

A 21" range bass would typically weigh about 5 lbs as an FYI. But regardless it is awesome to take one that size on a popper!

Hit the lake again on Wednesday.  Plenty of spirited bluegill and 8-12+ bass.  Then I caught this whopper.  I would say 21+ inches and in the 8-10lb class.  He wouldn't fit in my net.  The smaller fish fight more.  This big fella sucked in my popper...went for a very brief run then jumped once...then turned into a side of ham.  Just layed on his side and let me pull him to shore.  

Pics showing an example of the smaller types...then the "whopper".
9'/7wt floating line on an Orvis rod/reel...throwing a yellow-based surface popper.


Cheers
