7.5lb NJ LMB

[reason162]

Second 7lb+ NJ LM in as many months, almost embarrassed to catch this fish given how little time I've devoted to targeting them compared to smallies and fluke...but that's fishing - it just takes one cast.

Clean hookup, clean release, public water (as always!)

rod - Megabass Destroyer P5 Mark 56
reel - Daiwa Tatula 200
bait - DRT Tiny Klash, lip in mode B
line - 16lb Sunline Sniper

Finally, just a friendly reminder that bed fishing...is for losers

It's a baby whale! Nice job Rog!

good work!

I think that just goes to show your experience and knowledge with fluke applies to many other fish like bass

Thank you! Though it's probably the other way around...fluke aren't that smart

If that's where I think it is, I've had two very memorable largemouth out of there many moons ago. Both pushing 7, but not over. Largemouth over 7 in NJ is a fantastic feat!

Damn. That’s a beast. Congrats.

Tyty...for a long time my smallmouth PB was bigger than my LM PB, and now things are right with the universe
