28 pounds 4 fish stringer

[Mike Cork]

First let me say, this is Caddo Lake in Louisiana. It has a protected slot of 14-18 inches and your only allowed 4 over the slot.

The first fish was my first over of the day and she weighed 9-12. I had a friend close by watch me catch her and he took the photo.



Next is a 6-4, no camera man



Next up is a 7-14 again no camera man



Last one I took a pic of, I tried to do something different, but it didn't work well.
"Livewell Shot" ... this one was 6-3 or 6-2 my arm was getting tired and the scale kept bounce but you know us fisherman I'll claim it was 6-8 all day LOL



I've had some epic days on Caddo Lake, weighed 26 pounds in a tournament and numerous 20 pound stringers but I've broken my personal best stinger. Shame we couldn't keep five overs on this lake I had a couple 5 pounders too.

Wow!! I'm officially jealous... lol!! Wtg Mike!!

livewell shots are hard... always helpful if you have ability to 'polarize' the lense/filter.  Used to do that on the old school cameras where we could screw on the filters.   

those are some 'nice' fish Mike...  that one in the net, man, what a  'high-backed' stud!

Great photos... all of 'em.   

What A DAY!

[Mike Cork]

[Mike Cork]

Coldfront obviously taken with my phone. Are there any tricks too help?

I let the GoPro home that day LOL go figure....

Nice job Mike! 

That's about 10lbs more than any of the 5 fish bags here on Friday.

mike:  all of my livewell shots really suck.  only suggestions is to go old school camera (digital now) so you 'could' put a polarized filter on...  the other option is to have 'bottom lighting' of the livewell, which would really show up your catch for this one single shot ... 

the 'fix' you and I seek is just probably not worth the $$...  http://www.pcworld.com/article/196453/8_must_have_accessories_for_point_and_shoot_cameras.html

Great catch!  Old lady Caddo can be stingy but when she gives them up it can be great.

[Lipripper]

Thanks for the report Mike and them are some great looking fish. If only that one was a few oz more. Just about a double digit 

[DonM]

If you had taken me with you, you could have kept eight of them!

[CraigP83]

that is what keeps us going back.

Yes it does. The very next day I only caught three over the slot and they weight just ten pounds. And if it wasn't Easter today, you bet I would be at it again. Now I have to go to Missouri and try and whack some deepwater giants and test my memory banks LOL
