Beautiful... Never saw a LMB that looked anything like that.. Over the years, I have caught several SMB that looked kind of like that.. Very light with an almost golden hue... Then again, I have caught several SMB that were almost black.. In this area, depending on water body, temp, clarity, depth, time of year, there are large gradients in the color of SMB.. Not so much in LMB.... bob
