Last Day of vacation... SUCCESS!

I found a pattern on Lake Mohave my last day here. I got on the water at 3 am, and immediately headed to rocky areas I identified yesterday. I was casting weedless craw baits on to the bank and bouncing them down steep rocky banks.
Ended the day at 11am with nine largemouth and one smallie. Most of the fish were between two and three lbs, with the best three going 4.4 pounds, 5.7, and a very nice 7.5 pounder, which I was told by some local guys was a very nice largemouth for this lake, at least in this area.
I'll be packing up tomorrow and making my way back to beautiful SD. With any luck it'll be Otay on Sunday!

Haha yeah my selfie arm is only so long...
@VinnyBass once suggested that I change angles sometimes to break up the monotony of my photos, but there is only so much room on my float tube, and with arthritic shoulders I am lucky I can still hold the fish up as it is haha.

Nicely done! A lake you can fish anytime any day.

Yeah brother! I haven't night fished for a hot minute, at least for bass. I guess Jennings allows for some after dark fishing during the summer, but they don't allow float tubes so ..
