Got another 1, a 2 1/2 LB. smallmouth. I caught it on a green fluke with a 3/8 oz. jig head. It was the first on my new rod.

I caught this 1 pound at a farm pond about 5 miles from my house on the second cast of the year !!!!!. I was using a strike king 1/4 OZ. spinner bait (the color was a bluegill) in front of cattails. That was the first but not the last, me and my dad together caught 17 !!!. I caught 4 on the spinner bait and 4 on a crazy legs chigger craw.

I am more proud of this fish than the biggest bass I have caught. This is my Daughter Kylee's first bass out of a pond.

Todd Thompson
Buckeye Nation Bassmasters
In February 5th, 1983, I landed the "Greatest" catch of my life! On that day, a wild eyed Rock-n-Roller caught himself a cow girl! Twenty Seven years later, this Rock-n-Roller still gets goose bumps every time I see her smile back at me!!

Mike White

I was told there was a good frog bite going on. Next time I will ask what is biting on the frog.

Eddie Levin
SSW Minnows & Buckeye Nation Bassmasters
While working over a nice school of 12 inch bass last fall at Salt Fork, this monster decided to eat my tube! It wouldn't even fit in Todd's net!

Shawn Kellough

Just a day in the blind with my two best friends!

Shawn Brewer

Shawn got these 2 wild hogs in Vinton County on Dec. 20, 2009. Now that is cool!

Ron Nichols
Hard Knox Bassmasters
14 point bow kill this fall from Knox County. Wow!

Paul Molan
Buckeye Nation Bassmasters
10 point buck taken during gun season from the northeast corner of Ohio. And we thought Paul only knew how to shoot ducks!

Ron Nutter
Bent Rod Bassmasters
Take a look at this beauty! Ron took this 20 point buck on opening day of gun season!

Mason DeJarnette
Buckeye Nation Junior Bassmasters
Check out the great 6 point buck taken by one of our best junior anglers! It’s hard to tell who’s happier, Mason, his 3 hunting buddies or Old Yellower!

Jake DeJarnette
Buckeye Nation Junior Bassmasters
Well, Jake hated to out do his older brother Mason but he just couldn’t pass up this nice 8 point buck! According to dad, Jake didn’t have the hunting fever till now. By the looks of that smile, he’s got it now!
