Nice fish snowshoes.  Pardon my lack of knowledge but what are those balls floating around in the live well for?  It's been a couple decades but I grew up fishing bass in Pennsylvania on my Dad's Lund and we never had fun balls to play with when the bite got slow  :chuckle:

The balls are cull tags for tournaments. I just leave them in there all the time.

Nothing big yet for me but that is status quo.  I am getting better slowly at the bass game.

Little mans  bass off  the dock on a lure I emphatically told him would not work.  He proved me wrong and has been ever since.  Great Times!

The nephew got one worth bragging about 9.8 LBS. yes they were releasing their catch this one hammered the plug so hard the bill was barley visible and to say the least it didn't make it.
