Tonight I brought the tunes with me and wasn't expecting to even get a bump. Third cast and BOOM! This guy hit really hard, like he was one hungry MF. I didn't even have my backpack off yet. Shit! What am I gonna do here? It's either land this bastard and not get a picture, or somehow reel this fucker in while reaching for the camera in the backpack. Well...
I almost had to rip the backpack off of me, threw it to the ground (while keeping tension on the line) opened it up with my one free hand, grabbed the camera, and snapped a pic before this poor bastard suffocated. I love challenges! Fishing by myself isn't so bad until I wanna get a picture of the score.
Needless to say, I pulled it off. I landed this guy, snapped a pic, and had enough time to get him back in the water before he was belly up. I wanna catch this guy again! The one thing that I didn't pull off was not spilling my beer. Oh well. Life is full of trade offs I guess.
My first bass @ Murray:
This is also the first time I've seen a bass with brown eyes. Kinda cool if you ask me.
When the excitement was over, I cracked a beer, lit a smoke and turned up the radio to bask in the gasm. Let The Good Times Roll was on the radio and that pretty much did it for me.
Let 'em keep rollin' indeed!

You lucky shit. I had plans for this weekend but Ike is gonna fuck those up.
Beautiful! It's a heavy one, too.
Congrats. If you ever fish a trout, don't forget me,,,
As a matter of fact Claudia, I love trout fishing. My Dad and I are heading to the Sierra Nevada's at the end of this month for 5 days of trout fishing (and massive beer consumption for me). I'll be sure to dedicate my first catch to you, darling! :-)
