Went out with a buddy for the first time on Ray Roberts to prefish and get a feel of the lake since I’ve never been there before. Focused on the standing timber since that seems to be what every targets on the lake. Only caught 4 spotted bass and two short largemouth before noon. But at 12:30 ish I caught a 7.76 to really make the day a great day and funny thing it was the only keeper.  (sorry for blurring the background I usually do not but this was a big fish and don’t want people to go tear up the place looking for her)
Thanking the lord for another day on the water

Nice one! Didn't have to wipe the background. There's enough left for most who know the lake to know about where that was.

And more than likely she won't be back there the next to you go there. Nice fish though!

Been over 15 years since I've been on that lake and I live in Texarkana now. So, there is no way I could find the spot.

Excellent fish. Now, did you just pull into those weeds to throw us off the trail. Ha.. Please share what she bit on. Thanks for sharing a great catch.

Ha! The background didn't help to much. I don't know that lake too well, but I do where that is. Nice fish!!! By the way, I think most of us on here are courteous enough to not go wear that area out just because someone caught a fatty there... LOL! Someone should put a put a link to this in that recent "How many rods do you need to catch bass" thread. All the replies were "I usually have about 20 on deck!" That's obviously not the case here Congrats!!

A Strike king 3/8 oz skipping jig in a green pumpkin skirt but it has about 4 strands of orange skirt which I trim to half length of the green pumpkin. And of course a green pumpkin z-craw jr which is one of two things I always use as a trailer.
