With the full moon, I decided to sleep in a bit and look for the late morning bite. That part went right. But the target fish was hybrids and the actual fish turned out being largemouths. Since I couldn't find any fish on slabs or Humdingers, I went to the DD22 troll. Here's the results :

Fish 1 : 11:00 AM on a DD22 at 17ft. The seat is 20" across, so this was a 21-22" fish, I'd estimate 5 lbs (no scales, dangit).


Fish 2 : This fish was a double with Fish 1, but caught on a DD14. Fun little scramble to get both fish aboard. About an 18" fish, maybe 4 lbs.


Fish 3 : 11:30 AM on a DD22 at 18 ft. The net measures 18" across, so I'd say an 18" fish and maybe 4 lbs


Fish 4 : 12:00 Noon on a DD22 at 15 ft. This one put up a great scrap. The net measures 19.5" from the handle screws to the opposite side, so I'd say this was about a 22-23" fish and maybe 5.5 to 6 lbs - - was bigger than the first fish.


Then they shut off. Otherwise, the trip yielded 2 sandies and zero hybrids. But I'm not too upset about that.

nice fish! Every once in a while I catch a nice bass trolling.

how come the first two got to sit in the seat and the others had to lay on deck ?

LMAO!

Nice Fish!

Chuckle - - for the first two, I had my lifevest sitting on the seat, so it wasn't hot. For the second two, I had put the lifevest back on and the seat was scorching. So I gave the fish a little break. All the fish were back in the water quickly after the photos and swam away well for others to catch.

Some nice bass, there.

Nice fish.

looks like that fish is enjoying the ride on your boat.

Sounds like you had a good time, sleepin' in 'till late, then getting on the water & having a morning like that! Guess some people are just born to catch fish!!!!

Congratulations, & Good Fishin',

Good times there Launcher!

nice.

Very nice catch

Looks like you had a fun day!

That would have been a great stringer in a tournament.

HA HA...Nice fish for sure! That's a solid hour of catching!

Awesome job on a tough lake for largemouth !!

Nice group of bass!!

are you absolutely positive you were on Lake Benbrook??!!

Nice fish

no kidding... That would of won any tournament on that lake.

Nice catch on all them

Yeah, it's hard for me to believe too. If you asked me to reproduce it, I'd ask how many years are you gonna give me? That said, the lake has given up some very nice largemouths this year to guys fishing a bit deeper for sandies and hybrids. They're holding on humps and structure out in 15 to 25 ft water.

BTW, love that screen name - lookn4afishfight - excellent.

What is a DD22 and DD15...?

Deep Diving crankbait

great job! thats a heck of a lot of nice bass for benbrooK!
