We are really studyng this dam. We have seen pictures of bass weighting 18Lbs at this lake so we really need to work to get one of those monsters. This dam is used as a water supply of guadalajara and it's just a 40 minute drive to get to the water. We are set for the hunt

Thanks for the comments!!

Gotta love south of the border bass.

Here are a few pictures of the guy who fished the 18Lbs Bass at this dam. But a little info about this guy first. This makes a living from stuffing Bass and selling them to restaurants and collectors. He does not really practice catch and release

because what ever he catches, he stuffs it

But, it's his way pf living and the law here in mexico is not very well executed.

Anyway, here it goes:

And it's close to me, not the camera, so no wide angle effect on it

It was just a beautiful bass
