Only fish I ever caught before this year was rainbow trout and one brook trout in the Sierras, and maybe a few bluegills form the park pond when I was a kid. this year, I had many firsts, including my first bass. Will probably be adding more photos later. Gotta go fishing today :lol: Here's to a great 2008! :beer:
Here is some highlights from my year..

Dude,
I tell you what. I forgot how much of a battle this one was.
If anyone knows how bad the Zebco 11 sucks and how hard the catfish at Silverwood fight, you can truly appreciate this catch right here :lol:
I must have fought that sucker for a good couple minutes while adjusting the shoddy drag and hoping line twist wouldn't break me off. The cheesy rod it came on was bendo and the fish ran me all over a point. Had another one, one time like that on my Sahara that spooled me too off the same point. Those wood kitties are fiesty! That was the first and last fish I ever caught on that zebco :lol:

nice TJ glad i could be there on some of those moments. my favorite was when your lil pole got spooled by that 4lb cat lol.

:lol:
That 4lber! I was using 4lb maxima green line and I swear I broke off the line every other cast that day. that line broke just tying the knot! I was pissed! Finally I stuck the chovie on and threw it in 15 feet of water and went to work the worm on the other side of the point. All the sudden Skyler and Vg are goin "dude, get you're rod!" I looked over and said "set the hook! set the hook for me!" They said "we don't need to"! I was like whaaaa?? :?: :shock:

I walk over and my ultralight rod is doubled in the holder peeling line like crazy. :banana: VG said he thought a whale took the bait. Picked it up and set the hook for good margin, and all the sudden I feel a "ping!"
Looked down and my freakin spool was empty on a crappy spool of line! Started fighting the fish with my body and my hand as a drag and we all thought this was some 8lb fish. after another few minutes and Skyler jumped in the water to get it, it was this 3.9lb catfish or something :lol: Thing was on a rampage like a freight train and pulled at least 100 yrds of line or more on a snug drag. That was a good time right there man, I was freakin out. Thought I Was gonna lose that fish for sure. :lol:
