4/25/2010 7:43:00 PMA diehard bass fisherman that practices C&R does not keep a bass like this and waste it. I caught it May 16th and it was in Gary Blews freezer two weeks later. There is alot of history between me and JumpOffJoe lake and I will be glad to explain offline if anyone cares. Plus, that fish would have died. It had brown stuff in its gills, and if you look close at the second pic, it smacked the dock in two feet of water trying to break my line and had a dent in its head. I will be getting the fish back shortly, it takes a year with Blew since be does such good work. It should be pretty sweet!

4/25/2010 7:47:00 PMYou brought back memories with you mentioning gold fish. I remember when that lake was full of them. Back in the day when I was 15 years old, I think I was the only one that bass fished that lake. I am 38 now. That lake is not what it used to be. I use to catch a 4 punder almost every trip out. Too many bass fisherman these days for that 100 acer lake. I even saw a 21 foot Ranger on that lake last year with a 250 Vmax. Pretty crazy.
