Big Bass Buddy

It was an exciting weekend here at Houseboating Excursions in the Mississippi River Valley, we caught the biggest largemouth bass we have ever caught in our entire lives. It measured 22 inches and we estimate it weighed about 10 pounds. We are normally just crappie and sunfish people but it was exciting to catch something like this, we took photos and shared it with friends and our blog and the sportsman in us released the bass back into the Mississippi River for someone else to catch and enjoy. We did very well catching plenty of crappies and sunfish which is great because we love to eat them and once in a while we even catch a catfish which are very tasty also. We haven't had any luck catching any northern pike which we are told is like eating a poor man's lobster, but there is still time left and the fish are hungry, afterall this time of year is the best time for fishing.
