The client stops yappin' and the fish start flappin'
 

Was jonesing to get out and fish a little yesterday but was mired in back-to-back meetings and conference calls the whole day. Did my last call of the day on the drive to a local town lake hoping to get in at least a few casts. Thankfully, I managed to get off the call with about 30 minutes to fish before needing to head off.

Didn't expect to catch anything - or anything of note, at least, but boy, was I wrong! On my first cast, this slob-o-matic largemouth hammered a 5" Senko and gave me a run for my money on a light rod and tackle. I was shocked to hook him, even more shocked to land him, and floored when I measured him up... 24". By far a personal best. Eclipsed my prior PB by at least two pounds and three inches.

Catching a fish so big ya can't hold it far enough away to fit in the frame for a photo... now that sure beats conference calls and meetings...

Made my night. No, made my week and possibly my month.

Ahh, the dreaded conference call. I remember having to be on an 8am saturday morning conference call one morning while ice fishing on Pines Lake. Put the phone on mute and kept jigging. Of course, my Binsky gets wacked, I drop the phone onto the ice, call got disconnected lol. Bottom line: Fishing > All Else

Big Bass, keep up the good work.

That's an unbelievable catch!
According to Pennsylvania's Fish and Boat Commision, a twenty-four inch bass is likely over sixteen years of age and over seven pounds! Congratulations!
And thank you for releasing her.
