Doesn't look like you need much help from us.
Fishing is tough around here. I'd be happy with a bass like that every time I went fishing. :Big Grin:
Keep doing what you're doing.

Nice bass, My friend and I went down to santa fe this morning arund 10:30 and wound up with a couple trout. If ur fishing for bass i've seen them all along the shore at the far end where the island is, they hide in the trees there. Good Luck.
