It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

That is a well earned fish, Mike....and I'll bet you sweat losing it all the way in as well.

Its funny you say that...although it wasn't a trophy I was quaking a little once I hooked the fish, mostly in disbelief. I was almost too nervous to get the camera out of my waders...
A good friend asked me last week if I still get excited over fishing even after doing it for most of my life...

Congrats on a nice fish! Pencils are my favorite spring plug. That one has a nice look to it.

retire that plug now before you lose it to some sharp toothed fish.
congrats Mike, it IS an accomplishment.
now you can dress your plugs with eelskins, I give you permission, but stay away from live ones.
