    Afternoon all:
    Gotta admit Capt. the tuna is more edible, but that's one dandy LM bass!
    Just looked it up: State record PA LM - 11lb 3 oz.
    NJ LM - 10lb 14 oz.
    World record LM - 22lb. 4 oz.

    Yrs. ago I caught one 24 1/2" but didn't weigh it. Bass season was closed, and I caught it on a flat trolling for walleyes. It didn't have the girth of Jims, and I'm sure was nowhere near that weight.

    OH MY! We were all young at one time, and we have pictures to prove it! :D Sort of like before and after!

    :laughing:

    :eek: what temp do you set your thermostat at??

    I might not like the shade my trees put out in the winter, but I sure do love the shade in the summer. Do not want a/c bills like that.

    Temp was 72* @ 4:00, 59* @ 4:30 and 46* @ 4:50

    Nice fishies....

    :wave: afternoon gents

    Nice one
    Got That thing at sundown wading in 3 feet of water dropping a live shiner in the pads, when I hooked it. In did not move so I was thinking I hooked a snag or old log. went to it to try to get my hook & when I reached down in the water in went off like a bomb. Lucky for me it went for the bank & not the deep water. I got it on the bank and jumped on it. Dad was out in a jon boat on the small grove lake & started yelling dont let it get away. We both know there was a big one in that small grove lake as he had hooked it 2 times but never could get it in the boat... He always said I got his fish:). Been trying for 40 years to get a bigger one but just dont think they are any left like that one.:(

    That was A light rod & reel with 10Lb line ..If it had made a run for the deep water it would have got away.

    Try to keep it at 76 or 77

    As long as they save that old black one Im good.

    Nice fish Jim. Shame to think you're right about there not being any more like that around. :(

    Hiya Ken, glad you're getting a break from the weather. Hope it holds.

    Hey Cap'n. Did you get your garage heater replaced?

    Dropped wife's Escape off yesterday to have oil pan gasket replaced. It had developed a small seep. Was supposed to get it back yesterday, but they had problems with couple exhaust manifold bolts and then when they got it back together it was throwing O2 sensor code. They think sensor got contaminated with cleaning fluid :notsure: . Putting new O2 Sensor in on the house. Supposed to get it back around noon. But that's why I decided to have it done; took one look at it and amount of stuff to be disconnected/moved, and decided it was too much to mess with laying on my creeper in my garage. :eek: That V6 is sure shoe-horned in there.

    I remember standing in front of that wall of names. A very moving and somber memory.

    Mornin' Tom. It is definitely worth the effort to visit.

    Waikiki is concrete jungle if you go. Military has a rec area over by Kaneohe. And I'd like to get back to snorkel Hanauma Bay.http://bellowsafs.com/lodging-rentals.asp
