1999 March - Lake Okeechobee

We decided to go to Lake Okeechobee to fish.  We had to get up really early and we saw a beautiful sunrise.

 I was still asleep but managed to catch a largemouth bass.

But mine was nothing compared to what Frank pulled in - a 9 lb largemouth!  Even the guide was excited, he said you don't see them that large very often anymore.

The guide was so impressed, he used the picture on his website as an advertisement.  Well it looks like Frank has the record now for the largest Largemouth bass :-(
