Solid numbers and a DD to top it off...... - 12/28/17 06:50 PM

Fished from 7:30 till about noon.
Water was a bit cloudy and 47�-50�
Boated 7 on 7 bites...which I felt good about in these conditions.
Super excited about catching a 10.38 pounder....my best fish in over 19 years.
They bit C-Rigged brush hogs up shallow, and 1/2oz jigs in 8'-10'

Big girl took a brush hog on a C-Rig in appx 18'.

Helluva morning!

Great fish bud!! Congrats!

Can I give you some pointers on taking selfies so you can have some better pix?

Set your camera to video a selfie pose then prop it up in your boat. Now get your fish and hold it up looking into the camera. Walk back & forth and adjust your hold on the fish until you get some good footage of the fish. Then you can go back and grab some still shots from the video.

You're welcome.

No..
Not really.
I'm not that worried about how photogenic my fish pics are.
More concerned with a quick and successful catch & release.

You're welcome.

Good advice ^^^ or just take pics of the fish on a measuring stick.

All good bud... Just trying to help.. You've been posting a lot of pix lately and I thought I would help because I like helping folks. I just generally like people but hey, whatever floats your boat.
