Potholes Largemouth
« on: May 02, 2010, 09:18:48 PM »
Hit Potholes yesterday with a friend.  Managed 2 fish, 2.8 lbs and 3 lbs.  The largies are starting to move up to the spawning flats.  My buddy caught 2 fish as well, 4.5 lbs and 4 lbs.  The only bad part of the day was we nearly swamped the boat when we speared a 4 foot swell.

I think the open was mid-April.  There was a walleye tourney on Potholes going on and I believe there was a bass tourney as well.

Nice fish. Water looks pretty high. 4' swells + bass boat = wet

The open was this past weekend on Moses.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
