managed to fight and land 2 large mouth bass this after noon/evening, this is the first and second lmb i had caught in along time.Caught them tossing a 4"/5" stick worm weightless on a offset worm hook, where i was is not so deep, need to get some small worm weights and some small bass jigs to work trough the weeds anyway here are a pic of each fish, the bigger fish didn't give much of a fight, the smaller one put up a bit more action.DSCF0322_zpsab01d48a.jpgDSCF0326_zps6c6efbe2.jpg

I've always thought that their camo looks so cool! Nice catches!

i find the smaller bass fight better with some aerials more than the hogs too. they seem to just hug bottom and move their weight around.

Those are some awesome looking bass! I love using a weightless worm, probably my favorite technique, especially when you see your line start to move!

totally agree just from fighting these 2 largies, the bigger fish just took the worm in so easy the bite was so light, the fight was kinda lazy as well.The smaller one banged the worm good and put up more of a scrap :)

where i was fishing for the lmb using a weightless worm seem to be a top producer, cool when the line just starts to move as you said fn. :)

Neat, I find lmb are more willing to take a worm then smb but that may be just me. My favorite way of rigging them is on a weedless wacky rig hook. :)

So this is my first lmb on the buzz bait fought and landed, battled a couple of fish a while back but was not able to land them, anyway this one gave a decent fight for it's size.Awesome to hear the commotion from the fish attacking your lure at the surface :D DSCF0331_zpsc3899680.jpg

So got out this afternoon after some lmb, had a few bites and misses, but managed one decent chunk.The weather was sun/clouds,warm still, a bit less humid, winds were blowing a bit.I was using texas rigged plastics with small tungsten bullet weight, the fish hit on a 3"green senko worm.The fish were hitting lightly today, this fish took the senko so lightly at first i thought it was gonna come unhooked but i was able to put some pressure on and get a decent hook set anyway decent looking fish here are a couple of pics.DSCF0346_zps1af90516.jpgDSCF0347_zps89d5283b.jpg

Amazing fish... is the colour so bright because of running water is it?  Fish must be hiding when they see you....lol
