We started early this morning and went without a bite for WAY TOO LONG! I thought uh-oh, maybe that moon allowed them to gorge early this morning (before daylight). Then whaam, 11 pounder....and what a stress reliever . Then, we went another 2 hours without a bite, going over fish after fish!! At this point (because it's been wide open), I'm checking lures, changing lures, trying different Pro-Cure Bait Scents ....everything I know to do. Then the 17# hits (first photo and trust me, although it doesn't look like it, it's 17....watch the video). And to end the day, we got a 12 pounder, like icing on the cake . #blessed
 
2 photos of each fish. All released
