This is Ryan with his PB bass, a beautiful fish of 12 lbs, that he caught on a Brush Hog, while fishing at San Pablo Dam Res.

I was lucky enough to be there and to take some photos for him. By the way, even though this was Ryan's first double digit bass, he never had a second thought of keeping the fish, and while his friends were talking about keeping it, he told them, "No way, I gotta' release this one" !!!

Hey Ryan, You da' man !!! :-)

Continued success to you !


	..... and then we got this excellent release shot of Ryan's hog too ! Is this cool or what ??? :-)


	This Charlie Richardson of Onalaska Tx. who was night fishing at Lake El Salto, Mexico, with a Zoom magnum lizard, when he caught this 12.5 lb trophy bass ! Awesome fish !


	Brian McCormick was fishing with a Tora Tube at Lake Perris when he stuck this monster bass of 14 lb 13 oz ! Brian reports that she fought extremely hard. He also caught a 9 lb'er just 10 minutes before ! Sounds like he had fun :-)


	This is Jeremy, with a huge 14.4 lb bass that he caught in South Carolina on a swimbait ! Of course a bass of this size is a big one anywhere in the country, but fish of this size in SC are almost unheard of !!! Amazing catch !!!


	This is Chuck, a long time Rancho Seco regular with a very nice 12.7 lb trophy bass. Chuck has been catching big bass from Rancho for many years and has two 15's to his name ! I was glad to take the photo for him :-)


	My buddy Rob "Swimbait" Belloni has really went an outdone himself now !!!!!!! This massive bass went an astounding 18.0 on the certified lake scales ! This was the largest bass ever caught by a "bass fisherman" on Pablo, and was also the largest ever caught and released ! Buddy, what else can I say, but "You are da' man" !!!! ....and you deserved it ! Back to top 10


	.....and of course, here is the "record setting" release ! Too cool for words !!! So buddy, who will get her the next time ? You or me ??? :-)


	This is Steve Mras with a bass which went exactly 10 lbs on a certified scale. Check out the 12" Castaic trout lure hanging from its mouth...... and people think this lure might be too big !


	Here I am with a 10.2 lb San Pablo Dam Res. fish, which bit a Basstrix Bluegill. ........ of course I'm holding it way out.... it's a fish picture, isn't it ? :-)


	This is Matt Allen with his first double digit bass and new PB, of 12.2 lbs, which he caught at Rancho Seco Lk. Great fish ! A huge congrats and continued success to you Matt !!!
