Awesome pics. Looks like a great day to me

Anybody who can quote The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha and catch river bass is ok in my book. Good report Joe.

Thanks fellas, please, keep the applause coming. Kidding, kind of. Mr Terrierman, you wouldn't believe the kevlar forest on the bottom of the canoe below me. Among other repairs. And I wasn't joking about the duct tape and caulk either. Mr Snagged, I fail to see a smile in those pix. At most, I usually can only muster a grimace.

The largemouth was easily 5 pounds, and a rough rod measurement put it at 24 inches. 

Love to all.

And not one comment about those stretched out arms. 

The boys are slipping.

Picture 3 looks like a half hearted smile.  Or gas maybe.

That's the first my son said.  Log arming a fish for pictures.

Yeah, but Joe's a pretty good sized guy.  If he didn't long arm them they'd look like minnows

Awesome trip, pics, and report Mr. D.  But with all due respect, I don't think you have any room to critique anyone's fishing wardrobe............................

At 24 inches, I'd venture to guess it's pushing six plus.

Good for you! That's a huge river largemouth, heck it would probably put you in the money for a lake tourney.

It's a super nice river fish. 

I just was thinking of the fish I posted and Gavin giving me grief and my arms weren't anywhere near as straight out.
