Pike and walleye upgrade.  I really thought I had a bass photo. I guess I screwed myself not adding one of those today too.

Way to go guys...  The fall fishing is really heating up!

My best local bass 21.5"
and Rainy Lake Ontario from September 23.
Rained every minute I was there but could not keep these things off my red Hybrid Hunter.
There are other guys from IDO who may join who are FAR MORE proficient than I but it has been a good summer/Fall so far.
Even got my first "double" this year.

Love the mechanics of the site.  Easy to find where I "was" as well.
Now if I could just engage the brain and think while using it it'll be even better.

Typically I only measure fish just to see what they are but don't photograph them. I weigh the odd fish just to learn a little better on what a 2 or 3 or 4 pounder might look like for the future.
My big bass was 21.5'.  I weighed him as I had caught one the same size on the same lake 2 weeks prior.  Definitely a different fish as this one had some pretty discernible markings. He hit 5.4 lbs on my scale. Looked "old" to me.
4 feet of water, bright sunlight, at noon on a  1-3' diving squarebill crank- translucent color - Hybrid Hunter (same lure as the one in the picture - or what's left of it after 2 days of Rainy Lake smallmouths and Northerns)  Pretty calm water right in front of a downed willow tree. On the second to last dock we were gonna fish before leaving.  Thought I had snagged the tree - a nice surprise.
