My biggest largemouth bass to date. Though I was sure it was a 10, I was ecstatic for the next few hours. It took me an hour just to get my heartbeat back down below 100! Only 15 minutes later, I had another Grande roll up below the same shad stick, causing my heart to actually stop for a moment! It was just too much to hope to get to hogs already on the first day. I had started my morning with a surface shattering bite on a saltwater Chug Bug. A great first day. I had about 1/2 a dozen Shad Sticks and about 12 X Worms left after only the end of the first day! I had a pretty good sized big rod hook-setting stomach bruise already too (sorry about showing you with no warning Don 
)
Here's our day 1 guide Jose with Jim Sprague holding one of the many nice bass we caught that afternoon off of bluff banks:
All the guides I fished with were excellent. They'd take your fish off the hook if you wanted. Retie for you. Run the trolling motor. Net your Grande's 
Whatever you wanted. They all seemed to know where to take us for topwater action, numbers, better size, big 'uns. You name it.
After fishing day two again with Jose and Jim, I spent day three with Jack Horning and Luis. Luis really put us on to decent topwater action and later in the day, numbers of quality bass. Here's Jack Horning with Luis showing off one of the many really nice bass that he landed out of steep cuts and off of bluff banks:
More coming...

Nice Fish, I think there was another big fish caught the day of that big 8.12. I think the guy at the other end of the camera should have a picture up there somewhere don’t you think?????? Sure is alot of that Dan guy on there even if it is his site.
HMMMMMMMMM
You need to look at the 2nd article to find your pictures Paul. I had Jim and Jack on the first one because I fished with them earlier. Just a chronological order thing big fella. More pictures and video coming, don’t you worry. :>>
Just Kidding… I see the pictures and the whole experience was AWESOME!!! Especially fishing with Dan. Thanks for the excellent trip Ron, look forward to another one someday.
I’ll have more of the story and pics up by tomorrow night (Outdoorama & TBF meeting during the day tomorrow). I might get some video up too.
awesome site, so cool to see all pics including one of me on cover!!
