So my future father-in-law has always been a huge bass fisherman.  Me, I haven't fished since I was like 10 (I'm 33).  This is the 2nd time I've done any sort of actual fishing with him on a bass boat using real baits instead of balls of bread like I did when I was 10.

We ended up taking first place out of about 45 boats and splitting the $360 take.  Total weight was 11.63 lbs of large mouth bass, limit was 4 fish but we only caught 3.  Almost took "big fish" until the last group weighed in.

I only have hand me down gear and I'm still learning all of the terms.  We used spinner baits the whole morning, both with Oklahoma blades.  I used a spinning reel just because the spinner bait happened to be on that rod/reel.

It was fun and a good time, winning certainly helped in the end.  Hopefully he keeps taking me out

Congrats, are you hooked on bass fishing now?
My offensive line can beat up your defensive line.

When gunslingers come to town, sai, things get broken. It's a simple fact of life.

More or less.  Still learning all the techniques and such.  Luckily my future father-in-law already has a nice boat, crap load of rods/reels, etc.  So even his hand me downs are nicer than what I would buy.
