A Few Bass for Marcus...(My Year in Review!)

Hello All,

Loved lookin' at Marcus's Year in Review. Although I'm not as multi-specied as our friend out west, bass is my true love. And nothing warms my heart on a cold winter day like looking at some fat largies and smallies. Here's a sample from my 2005 - the highlight was a new PB of 6lbs, and a 5lb 10oz for the girlfriend...
As much as I adore icefishing, there's nothing like tossing a flipping jig to a fallen tree or dock and seeing what tugs your line!
Good Fishing,
Justin

another great "year in review"! :D i think next year i'll try and target more largies than i did this year, seemed like i only targetted the smallies (wife is a hook line and sinker over the side of the boat fisherwoman :) )
love the pics of the bass with the lure of choice in its mouth. :D

Always like to see the fish caught by a fellow bass-a-holic.

Some great pics there, especially the one with the spro slop frog. That's a beautiful pic.

Justin,

I love reading your reports always some awesome fish to gawk at!

Awesome year bro! Those are some serious Largemouth's :!: :!:

I'd be happy to just catch some Largies of any size, never mind the footballs you have brought in :shock: !

I'd love some tips on how to locate and get some of them bucketmouth's in my new boat. :oops:


All the best bro!

Awesome bass Justin......

I love bass....nothing hits a topwater fly like a smallmouth bass.

One of those bass looks like it inhaled a duckling or something...soo fat!


congrats...looks like you had an awesome season man!

Justin, what a great season you had. Loved checking out all the reports you made from different bodies of water, always interesting and well written posts (gee, wonder why? :lol: ) and spectacular pictures. FH is lucky to have you onboard. Keep up the great work on those bass next year.

Now, let's start seeing some hardwater reports bud!
