Another Bass Derby - Dave's Giant Smallmouth

Dave and I saddled up the old green machine for another bass derby down near Kingston on a local back lake. After a tough morning of fishing Dave managed to claim second place. The more interesting story is the 5lb 13oz smallmouth bass he caught to give him that win. What a beast! What's even more shocking is that it was caught on a lake that isn't known for having smallmouth!

Pics and a report below.

Thanks Jay! We should try to arrange a trip sometime. Compare notes and such.
Also, I left the name of the lake out of the report on purpose, but I bet you can guess which lake this was on!

Congrats my man. I too celebrate a little girl born June 10… still a little small for a rod yet… even a princess one! But that day will come. Thanks for the post - great read. I guess you never know what it's going to be until it's in the boat!
