Light line bassin'. Super fun stuff. lol I was asked for a few minutes on why I released this beauty. My answer: "I want to catch him again."

great bass and photo

great answer as well , always good to release the bigger models to let them grow and reproduce . there is a good reason they got that big in the 1st place let them genes pass on and hopefully it will be caught another day by another lucky angler that will have a fight of a lifetime on a nice size fish . For some that is and will be there PB ever


Great fish and thanks for sharing ,

X2 on the answer I always get that asked in newport when I get out....I tell them c&r and they go ill take them lol yeah right buddy....its like u go catch them.....

Good for you! It really hurts to see a nice bass go on a stringer. Keep the 12-14" fish if you must, and release the bigger models. I know that goes against old-school thought, but it will keep the population bigger and healthier!

nice fish, and yah C&R everything, unless the trout dies because they are whimpy

There are definitely some larger ones out there. They boil so epically that you would swear that it was carp jumping. lol not my PB though, but it's much appreciated fish.

I never keep anything from park lakes. The water is way too "clean".

Its best when they offer money and you get them excited by answering "sure give me five" and as your hand extends it drops back into the drink then you slap a Hi five on them! Whoops...Always C&R!

Nice.

Peck Pit?
