LittleRedFisherman Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Fished with a young man today that is quite an angler, he’s won quite a few local tournaments, and has fished the river quite a bit. We had a good day up to that point catching a lot of kentuckies, the smallies were not cooperating as well but we were on the tail end of the good smallie water on this river. Anyhow we got to a spot that had a big tree and some slack water and he perfectly sling a black and blue jig right next to a tree, then this happened. She weighed 6lb 4oz and was quickly released after a couple pics, also have video! For me, this is the largest river bass I have personally seen! I got to help land it as I forgot the dip net, made for some excitement! Daryk Campbell Sr, JestersHK, timinmo and 10 others 13 There's no such thing, as a bad day fishing!
ollie Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Nice fish. I had to take the pic for Buzz when he caught his big river bass. Kind of sucks being the camera man! Just curious if you got a tape to it. That is one healthy bass! "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!

The other was a Brown trout in the Upper End. Both were more awesome than my own PB's!
