Hamlin Pond 8-18
Message:
So I got a neat tool in the mail today to help me take better pictures when fishing so I rushed to the pond when I got home. Rushed a bit too fast though... Forgot my tool my camera and my drink :oops: Fished anyways... I worked a bullfrog colored 5" stick bait on a weighted wacky hook through the weed edge and landed 3 keepers doing that. Two were 13" 1 was 15" all weighed in under 2 lbs :shock:
Once the sun went down I tried a frog with no success. Once the lightning hit, I hit the road. So 3 bass in 5' of water in heavy weeds in 1.5 hours.

Nothing wrong with 3 in 1.5 hours dude, pretty good catch and release rate. Where's Hamlin?

My rules of thumb for guesstimating the weight of a Connecticut largemouth bass from its length are:
14 inches = 1 pound
16 inches = 2 pounds
18 inches = 3 pounds
20 inches = 4 pounds
22 inches = 5 pounds
24 inches = 6 pounds
Of course, the girls are always heavier than the boys and, of course, an egg-laden pre-spawn cow will weigh more, but in my experience these rules hit the middle of the bell curve. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test the "24 inches = 6 pounds" rule yet! :roll:
