    Caught this one within a mile of my home. She measured a fat 31 inches and weighed 9lbs 4ounces Released to swim another day. I hope some future angler gets as much fun with her as I did.

    Thanks, I used a 1/2 ounce blade bait. One out of the batch I made up earlier this year. Copper glitter on the front half and polished nickel blade for the rear half.

    That’s a tank, Dave. Congrats. Imagine what she’d weigh in early March.

    By the way….thanks for the color scheme idea.

    The big ones are fun to catch, and to see swim away afterwards
