My brother and I fished at his favorite lake. It was Flag Lake, located on Barksdale Air Force Base. There was not a breeze the entire time we were there. (See lake picture) The lake was about 3 feet low. It was very hot all day. We fished for both bass and crappie. Usually, we'll catch a half dozen or so black crappie, but we only got one. Some of the toughest fishing I've ever had.
On average, your heart beats 100,000 times a day. One day, one of those heartbeats will be your last. Then what?

I'm guessing the poached bass was the first on the stringer? As in poached like an egg, not "poaching".

yep, I'm definitely not eating that one below the crappie. Poached = NASTY. The rest will eat just fine.

Good catch. Just enough for a couple of guy's plate fair. Thanks for sharing. I love those Cyprus tree lakes.

The bluegill are almost as big as the smallest bass.

I think I would take this pic down before a game warden starts asking minimum size questions

I caught this 12 during the eclipse. Can I borrow someone's eclipse glasses so I can see it.
