So since i actually got a Saturday off. Me and my family decide to go to LP today. Finally, time to test out my Super Fat Cat and my son would float tube for his first time. Also to hopefully break in his newly bought mojo bass drop shot rod...(spoiled kid). A bunch came with us today...my family and my inlaws...and a bunch of kidzzzzz...(well they went on shore). Well got to the lake and was on the water around 645am. We launched at lots 11-12 because i didn't want my son who has no exp in tubing to tube the bernasconi side just yet. I even had him tied up w/me. Keeping him 5-10 ft. in front of me the whole time. Anyways, we were fishing the far east end with all the weeds 1st hour goes by for nothing. Got a couple bites here and there but no takers. Drop shotting roboworms in morning dawn. Decided to switch to the MMIII 6 inch. First cast and WHAM! Phish ON! Had a glimpse of him/her and the my son yells...DAAAAAAYUUUMMMMM...that thing is huge...

That would be the end of it for him and i only caught two more on our way back to where we launched...Well once we were done and got back to the family. My wife shows me what they caught...a whole lot of BG's about palm size. And this one...
