2010 Fall - Wachusett Reservoir

Wachusett Reservoir is not an easy place to fish, but we decided to give it a try.   I was not expecting to catch anything just casting from shore so I didn't even bring my camera. I was using an imitation crawfish crankbait and suddenly I had a really big hit on my lure.  I couldn't believe it when I pulled in the largest smallmouth bass I have ever caught in my whole life!  It was 4-1/2 lbs and I only have Frank as my witness - no picture!!!

We went back the very next week, this time with a camera.  I was determined to catch another smallmouth and get the picture this time.  Unfortunately, I did not catch another smallmouth, but I did catch a nice trout on the same crawfish crankbait.
