Great story, beautiful first fish, and awesome way to handle taking pictures and release!
Good on you!

Great catch, great pics!

Or just use clonk, not sure if bass will cooperate though

I don't see what all the fuss is about.....for years and years thousands and thousands of baby seals were clubbed to death ! The odd Musky here and there getting whacked ?? :roll: Since when it was illegal like what the jackass did?? :roll: They clubb seals and leave them there .... I didn't think ...

Great!

If you mean the bridge that is under repair right now the depth in that area is 7ft even on the back side of the first piling so no way you can fish there without boat and get any deeper

If you'll keep fishing shoreline, this is what you can expect this time of the year.
Move deeper, you will get less action but bigger fish.

I would suggest you to fish deeper, it's too late now to find large pike shallow this time of the year.
