Been on the bass past two days, yesterday landed six lost one to partners faulty knot. Then as I'm polling through the spot, I ask did you tie the stringer up. Deer in headlights, it's gone five nice large mouth. We double back to find nothing, I decide to sit for About five minutes, I look over after about ten minutes of glancing see two heads under a Lilly, I pole over he grabs...... nothing. By this point I'm pissed but determined. I stick my spud down, glance the water, have sight fishing glasses, I see a yellow stringer about two foot down. I five in and grab the stringer to come up with the first three we caught, third being biggest around 6pds. So I was soaking wet, but I got fish back, phone still works after drying out, and I didn't have to choke my mom's bf out. Did not get any pics as phone got wet, but what a story to tell. Here is from the same spot today.

Lucky, sorta!

nice fish and a great fish story - how do you guys prepare/cook bass, I usually let 'em go because they don't taste as good as some other fishes,

Baron, if you send those bass back - you ain't cooking them right! Bass are delicious!

their not as good as pike or 'eyes - I really like pike and tigers

I have fried but my favorite is whole, stuffed with seasoning, garlic, lemon, onion, butter wrapped in aluminum foil on grill. Comes right off da bone.

Don't take pictures of my food much but here it is

12-14 inch bass are hard to beat for flavor if you ask me.

I'm sure it's good, but damn that looks like a water turkey threw up on your plate.

Can't help I set it down for a couple of minutes and one is gone.... I never was great on presentation, but damn was that sauce good on those fish.

Looks like fun and tasty too! I have only eaten them one time and I thought they were excellent. We caught a mess of bluegill a couple weekends ago and ended up with 7 pounds of fillets. They are pretty damn good fried up too!
Almost forgot. Going tarpon fishing tomorrow Dmax. Don't forget to look me up if you get down this way

Yes sir, I def will never been on tarpon. Them blue gills are Dam tasty
