Been a few yrs since I had been back to Big Friendly. This is Trent’s home lake and he knows it like no one else. Every time I have gone with him he still manages to find bass. Couldn’t ask for a better weekend. Enjoy the pics

I like Amistad! My favorite lake, Always coolers full of beer driving down and coolers full of fillets coming back.

I love that lake! I've taken my share of bass out of it when I was in a SA bass club.

I went there with some buddies back in 2018 and got some good number of fishes coming back home.
I would love to get back there soon.

Pretty low, I think I heard it was 54 percent full right now.

I love to see people keep and eat some bass, every once and a while. They are pretty good for a change of pace from saltwater fish. I have argued with friends in the local bass clubs (and lost a few of them!), that it is good for the lakes and rivers (in our case) for smallmouth to take some. Five years later, I listen to them bit*h about smaller stunted fish, and lower weights in tournaments!!

Great trip Roy, looks like one you need to do a bit more often

Bass are good eating and were my Moms favorite fish. She liked smaller ones in the 8 to 12 inch range best. Dang sure would love to sit down with them for a fish fry again.
