This little bass almost became a meal to a much larger lmb that was in pursuit.

I like to call rock bass a bass. They put up a pretty fun fight for a panfish. Caught this big one at lake steilacoom.

I love each bass I catch. Lately, I've caught a lot more baby bass and dinks than I prefer to... really just want to race them back into the water to go live and eat and grow big.

Still, each one earns a place in my memory. Even though the fight is but a brief moment, I feel like we just got acquainted. I like to think some day that dink I just tossed back will be an elusive hawg a decade from now... and just maybe we'll cross paths and throw down again. :bounce:

I haven't taken a picture of a dink this year. But I have a great one from last year I posted. I'll keep my eye open for a dink, if I catch one. :-"

This was early last year when I was just starting bass fishing. I think i had just watch a show and they talked about supporting the belly when holding the fish horizontal so that you do not break the jaw. I don't think they were talking about big fish like these.

Another rock bass, this one from Green Lake, a couple of days ago. Got some AMAZING fillets off of this monster fish.

Image Image Nope, that's the way it came out of the water. As soon as I touched the fish, it flopped and the senko flew out.

If you look at the picture close enough, you'll note the picture is acually upside down. I figured if I tried to turn the fish 'right side up' to where I was, then maybe the fish would throw the senko, so I took the picture first, then tried to turn the fish around. It flopped and out came the senko.
