Brother in law has a buddy that is local to our area....big time bass fisherman. Figured that maybe in this small world of ours that was you.

Nice looking fish by the way.

I caught largemouth in Novemeber, December,  and January but, for the life of me, cannot connect with a February fish this year (have in the past). I lost a couple last Saturday. Just cannot get one to the boat.

 Great job getting out there! A lot of these fish have not seen a lure in a few months so getting one to bite can be easier than a guy would think. Nice fish!

Added another today, only 2lbs but not a skunk 

lost one and missed another.

What are you guys using to catch these buggars. how deep to? I get bored on the lake trout fishing sometimes so just curious?

From now until May look shallow 10' or less. From now until April look for wood and rocks or even clumpy isolated vegetation. The fish want warmth until the water warms to about 52*+ then they will feed a little more aggressively. Use plastics or jigs for now and when the water gets warmer switch to reaction (moving) baits. There's a lot more to it than that but that's the short sweet version.

I'm fairly experienced in catching bass during the summer because that's what Ive done and I use double tail worms with a Carolina rig so I imagine just sink it to the bottom and finesse jig it?

Thread that on to a 1/4 - 3/8oz jig and you're in business
