We did more backwoods fishing way, way, way up last week and caught a few biggies or at least the biggest Smallmouth we've ever caught. Most were about 14=16 inches and weight? They weren't starving skinny but looked healthy and full bodied but not as fat as those we see on the fishing shows. Probably 1lb + each and getting these guys on 4lb test and off the rack ultralight set ups made for great action.

Takes a lot of talent to get a Birdnest on a spinner.

Awesome! Brings back good memories for me of small kid time (up until high school)

Nice fish.... I would ask where you were, but then I might have to hike all the way up there. :lol: :lol: :lol:

About that last picture.... "Think you spooled enough line on there, Sundance"?

"hike" might not be the appropriate term to use. Try "survival training" with all the boulder filled rapids we had to cross and swim through.

And thats a birdnest on my SPINNER. Imagine when I use a conventional. Geeeeezus!!!!
