That's one hell of a bass,
Chumley ! I'm guessing at least 8 lbs. ! Where're you at, and where'd thet bass come from ?

Well,,,,,,,,,, Welcome to the Forum, Chumley. Did you run over that big fella with a truck? I don't see a rod near you.

Yup at the time I had an 8 inch auger but since got a 10 so I can fit my bait traps thru the hole.

Yo ! Former N.H. native here ! Did that lake happen to be Ossipee or Loon by any chance ? Fished your area a few times when I was a young 'un ; Ossipee Lake, Tamworth River, the Saco and Ellis rivers ! So my guess of 8 lbs. was right ! Glad to see I haven"t lost it over these many years ! Incidentally, I'm from Manchester originally, so trips to your area were few and far between ! Loved the area, though, and tried to get up there as often as I could ! Do you live near there, or did you just happen to be fishing that area ?

Chumley,
I was going to guess Lake Ossipee. I have fished there. You almost caught a state record as NH is 10.8 lbs for a Largemouth Bass. Nice fish. Hope you were able to catch and release? Where I live in Mass. the state record is 15.8.

Layer up, my friend ! Looks like you may be in for a chill winter ! Two of the worst I can remember were the winters of '92/'93 and again in '03/'04; they were two of the coldest, snowiest winters I can remember ! It was so cold in Jan. of '04, that I remember walking out of the house and
seeing a dog stuck to a tree ! Damn near suffered the same fate as a kid when I had to 'go' while playing outside in January ! Not to disparage my home state, which I still love, but those winters are the main reason I am now in Arizona !
If I ever get the urge to see/feel snow, ice, and frigid air, I can drive about two-and-a-half hours north to Flagstaff; they get all of that, especially in the shadow of a 12,000-ft. peak ! (Not likely to happen; only go there in the summer to fish and escape the 'Valley' heat !)
