Next it was my turn to hook into a quality fish on the buzzbait. After seeing a nice pike hit and miss my buzzbait I got another hit, and up came a nicer largemouth compared to most of today's fish. Not sure on the weight, maybe another 2lber.. maybe less.. who cares! Another pic, and another release...
Well what can I say for the rest of the day? We fished the shoreline, marinas, flipped boathouses and docks.. and overall probably got 40-50 largemouth throughout the day! I couldn't keep them off the Senkos, which is cool because this is the 2nd time I've really ever tried them. Definitely a new confidence bait! The average size bass for the day is this:
After we were done fishing and declared losers even though I missed a bass that was well over 4lbs we headed to the pavillion to get the camp stove going for the meet and greet with members of a different board. It didn't look like we were going to have a good turnout at first, but suddenly came Greenbastard and Serge ready for some good conversation. Next to come was Fighting15 & His Wife and Irongimp! Then came a couple of surprise guests, Big Dave & Rick Levick! And finally down came Rob (J-Slick) and his friend (still dont know the name). Oh and a little later on Buzzz stumbled over and we all realized where he gets his nickname from
Lots of great conversation and good laughs shared between us. I even gave a little demonstration on how to use a senko (and almost got a few bluegill in the process, lol). And a few of us joined up with the LPBAA (myself included).
Here's a few pics for you!

Never did get Rick Levick or Buzzz on my camera but there are some more pics on Greenbastard's camera to be uploaded as well.
Overall a great day and even greater to meet a new bunch of good guys. Can't wait to do it again fellas, thanks for making a good day on the water a GREAT day to remember!
