Post by goodbrewing »

I caught this one sunday near west shore Hathaway point drifting a senko in 7-8 fow. I was alone and didn't want to take too much time so I didn't weigh it but it measured 20".
I caught a handful of smaller ones but this was the catch of the day.

Nice! Probably a 4.5+ LB SM from the looks of it, my 5 LB'er from last year was 21". Welcome to the forum, great first post!

You should enter that into the Vermont Master Angler program! Nice catch!

Definitely 4+. What time were you fishing? I was out Sunday, but just went through the bay on the way out at 9:30 and the way back at 4:45.

Thanks all. I have thought about entering it into the Master angler program but am undecided. It is my 2nd SM this year that qualifies.

I was out from around 2 pm - and came back in around dusk. I caught it around 3:30ish. I was out of the bay on the west shore that faces Burton Island.
I ended my day in the bay on east shore Hathaway with a few smaller bass (13-15") on a spinnerbait. I was fishing the docks and they started jumping a little out away from shore so I went out to where they were and played until the sun went down.
Did you have any luck?
