Fishing is Fun

[John H]

Especially bass fishing. Trout take you to beautiful places, steelhead are awesome and saltwater fish pull hard but bass fishing is all about fun. Anyhow, here are a couple of pictures of a pretty fun bass I caught this morning. I saw a little bit of a swirl behind my fly but no take so I threw a couple sloppy casts back in and he crushed the second one. I did not expect him to grab after passing it up a couple of times but sometimes you get lucky. He ran hard for the sticks but I narrowly averted that disaster. Probably 5 pounds. Maybe a tad more. I think I need to buy a scale. I have a boga but it seems like I could get a fancy digital one.
