 Jimmy P displays a nice largemouth he caught jigging! Our younger anglers are off to a great start! |  Logan just recently added this really nice 3+ lb largemouth to our gallery! Thanks, Logan! Hope to see more of your fish! |
|---|---|
 Jason's 8+lb MONSTER may well be one of the largest bass in our gallery. Hope you got a pic. of the whole fish! :-) |  Ashutosh sent in some of the last open water fish-pics and here he's sent in the FIRST ice fishing pics. Nice bass! |
 Ashutosh caught this nice early January brookie, snapped the picture and released it! |  Chicky gets the honor for sending in our first 2016 fish and it's a beauty too! Look, snow and open water. Go figure! |
 Ashutosh was one of last year's top contributors! He starts 2016 off with this nice brown fly fishing in MA! |  Dr. Bilodeau was out on the "big water" Early January, where he took the pool with this nice pollock! |

Well, here they are--- Ashutosh has sent in his first 2 open water bass (via kayak). WTG!
Here's Ashutosh's 2nd bass! Looks like the bass are starting to get hungry!
Here's Joe's FIRST bass pic of the 2016 season. You can count on a lot more!
Congratulations to Jim D. His bass pic is the first open water BASS picture of the season. This 4 lb. largemouh was caught in the Merrimack on a Spinnerbait using a Daiwa reel purchased from Joe a decade ago. He wrote that the Daiwa reel is still "going strong". This was the earliest that Jim has caught a bass! Hopefully it will be a great season! Oh yeah, it was caught in MA. Yes, that still counts :-)
Ashutosh sent in one of our first ice fishing pics, so it's only fitting he sends in our last. Well Done!
Ashutosh certainly put a lot of hours on the ice this winter and it paid off!
April
Early March was unseasonably warm with a number of nice bass caught. Then, Mother Nature cooled things down a bit. April should see warming temps and more fish!

Here's another "LUNKER" from the Crandall Gang! I'm thinking they should start giving seminars on bass fishing :-) I'd go!
One of my favorite pics this month: Kayden displays his 1st salmon (21" 3.5 lbs) Wow, great start!
Jim has had a good summer. Here's a largemouth he caught this month! Thanks for sharing.
The "Crandall Clan" had a BIG, BIG day on the water!
One of the "senior" Crandall's holds up this MONSTER!
This member of the Crandall gang may be on TV fishing with KVD soon!
Not to worry about the "red". It was only a flesh wound and the fish made a full recovery!
This Crandall should write a "How to Catch Lunkers" book!
September
Caleb has done well with his "lucky" TIGER CRAW!
Caleb is really getting the hang of "bass fishing"!
Look at the "colors" on that bass! Looks very healthy!
