The Kia wasn't available tonight and I forgot to bring my rain gear which means I was down my headlamp and writing pad. The one I had in the boat was waterlogged even though it was in a sealed plastic bag, not sure how that happens. En route, I decided to go the Starting Spot Rice Edge. On about my 10th cast, I got a 12.5" bass on the Sparrow Bobby's. A few casts later I had the 17.5" truck the Sparrow. I got a good look at the fish when it hit, so I was thinking 4lber the whole time. Was disappointed it was only 17.5" long. That fish had big shoulders and a gut. A fish that actually weighed heavy for its length. I missed one other good bite in the area. I got blown down the rice line and had a few pike snap at me, but no more bass. One pike stole the Sparrow's legs then my Texas Rig when I pitched to it.
At about 9PM I headed back and fished double cane back to the rice/reed edge. I was just about to pull up stakes at 9:20 when the big girl hit. I was so stoked. Great way to end the night.
