crappiepro Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Hello just got off a local farm pond, and had to show someone a couple pictures I took of the first bass I had caught on a bait I had repainted. The picture is actually the second fish caught, the first one got off. The first was a crappie. The second one held on, and let me snap a shot of it, and put it back. I painted the bait a few months back, it is a mann's pogoshad. I think it's favorite bait now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassmaster1974 Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 One of my 1st tournament wins came many years ago on the 1st crankbait I ever painted.It was a great feeling.That is still the ugliest DD22 I have in my box,but It was my first and it is always fun to look at my baits today vs the 1st one.Congrats on the bass!
