Biggest I ever caught...

Caught this last Friday from GV. Windy and choppy waters. Launched from Murrell park around 4pm. Headed east & saw bunch of birds diving about a mile or 2 east of Murrell Park. Got within a 1/4 mile from the birds when I saw a freaking pontoon boat making a B-line to the birds too. Of course he made it there 1st. Basically all he did was drive in full force slowed down went right through the birds, U-turn drove the birds again and took off. As he went by me, I was mad dogging him showing my displeasure. He had the nerve to wave at me. I ignored him while still mad dogging him. Really wanted to give him the 1 finger salute. Needless to say the birds were all gone and the fish were gone as well. Didn't see anything on my FF as I peddle through the area. I couldn't help but think that guy did that on purpose. All I could do then was wish with all my might that his boat would break down in the middle of the lake. Trolled around for a few hours, but didn't see any fish any where from 15ft-40ft. Trolled back to the boat launch as the sun is down by now and saw a line of boats waiting to launch & load. I was behind the no wake buoys and started to reel in my lines. As I was reeling in my second line, I got a snag I thought. I kept reeling and pulling still thinking it was snagged. Then all of a sudden, I felt something pulling back. Must be a turtle. Still reeling, but it wasn't putting up much of a fight definitely a turtle. Turns out to be the BIGGEST bass I ever caught. Don't know the weight or length as I had no scale or tape measure. While waiting got everything ready to load back up and snap a pic.

nice! looks like a giant.

Dang good bass!

VERY nice job!!!
For a non large mouth bass fisherman, you have been doing all the good here lately. Congrats on a huge bass.

That's a pig! Congrats!

Nice one!

Sweet!!!
You can guess the length pretty close as it is as wide as your cockpit opening!!!

hog

Thanks everybody! Again, was just pure luck no skills involved. Measured the inside of the cockpit and it's about 19 3/4" so I'll say the fish maybe will go 20" give or take. My PB to date...Now if only I can get on some stripers/hybrids that size

+1

thats a pig! nice job!

That's easy!!!

Any Thur, Fri, or Sat we can do that!

You'll be chasing those green fish before you know it...good job!

Yeah once I start chasing them, I'll probably catch more sandies...like reverse psychology

Where? I'm game for some striper/hybrid action!

Great fish!

Way to go on the nice bass Ren. Some nice writin' too.
