2012 full speed ahead

It's been awhile.  Even though we haven't posted in a minute,  that doesn't mean we haven't been pullin in chunks... here we go time to catch up on the season thus far.

We fished a little tourney on Farm Pond last week...  I took this photo of Puzz as he hooked the chunk in the next picture
 This slab would have won us 2nd place, weighing in at a mere 3.13lbs.... rookie-n00b move, we set him free, figuring someone would have use beat and forgetting about the second place prize.  Lets just say we both learned a lot fishing our first derby, and we're ready for the next one!

The morning after the derby, we hit Lake Winthrop before the sun did.
   We found a strip of coast that gave up the fish you see in the pictures to follow:

 I caught this healthy lookin 1.3lb slab, followed by a monster 5lb lookin bass that I couldn't wrangle into the boat... he broke my line just out of arms reach; time for a net and some high-test line...
Then it was Puzz who struck big!  Crankin in this 4.14lb Larry.  Awesome catch...

And that's our 2012 so far in a nutshell (minus a few less noteworthy trips and fish).
