Caught my PB on Grapevine last Thursday. She weighted 10 lb 3 oz on my digital scales. Looked like an oversized football. I left the picture untouched so you can see where she was caught. When you get to the dam, take a number. She took the bait three times before I was able to get a solid hookup. About 15 minutes and 50 feet later I hooked another that did the tractor routine and I got a little heavy handed with the drag. She was stronger than the first and straightened two hooks never letting me see her. If she was a bass, she was a monster, but I keep telling myself it must have been a catfish just so I don't feel so bad. But then again, how can I feel bad with one DD in the boat.

Wow, figured by reading the title it wouldn't be a bass. Nice catch you are starting off the year right.

Wow very nice. I never have much luck along the dam. I leave it alone most days. Very impressive out of Gvine. I see you out there often so I know you have out in your time there!!

Awesome! My only DD came from GV, a 10.4 that was 28" and spawned out. Could've been a 13+ easily if prespawn.
