I don't know how many fish i caught today, probabloy around 20. The smallest was about 3 pounds, bunches of the rest around 5 pounds average.

Totally AWESOME DAY!

Sorry about the limited pics, I had to use my G1 phone and that scares me out on the water.

That's a set of decent sized fish, sounds like you had a great day. I'm not familiar with bass, are they good eating or more a sport fish?

Large mouth bass, or black bass, are very good sport. they jump a lot and are strong fighters. Very good eating, white succulent meat. These, however, were all released to fight another day. We were prefishing a large private lake checking it out for a possible site for a Heros On Water event. I would love to see one of those gi-reens tie into that 11 pounder :wink:

I think the Heroes On The Water would love to catch those big brutes. What a great organization as well.
