Bman Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 One day this past week I had the pleasure of fishing with Al Agnews winter Smallie Guru, Nick, on one of Missouris Ozark Rivers. I have never seen so many quality Smallies in one day. According to Nick, it was an ok day. The first place we pulled up to, on his first cast, Nick caught a 17 incher. Nick followed it up with another about the same size two casts later. The better fish were in the 17 19 range. Nick seemed disappointed that we didnt hit the 20 mark. I hope it wasnt due to gigging, as several of the Bass we released bore the wounds of gigging. Thanks for the schooling Nick! The winter Smallie Guru, you beat all expectations. Can I call you OBI-WAN? Take a look at what this guy ate before he bit our bait! poor gig wounded Smallie The only good line is a tight line
Wayne SW/MO Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Very nice. A trip with Al is one to remember. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Bman Posted January 23, 2010 Author Posted January 23, 2010 I wish, but this trip was with winter Smallie Guru Nick. The only good line is a tight line
ness Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Wow -- what a day! I need to rethink how I spend my winter days. John
eric1978 Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Man, that looks like an incredible day. I wish I could be schooled like that. Well done.
Brian K. Shaffer Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 What did that fish eat ??? (in the picture that says look what he ate) Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.

Bman Posted January 23, 2010 Author Posted January 23, 2010 What did that fish eat ??? (in the picture that says look what he ate) I'm really not sure. I think maybe a little Smallie? After catching him, the least I could do is release him with his tummy full. The only good line is a tight line
