I’m usually on this site everyday, so I thought I should start contributing. Me and my boys like to fish Mantua because it is close to home and there is a good variety of fish. We’ve become expert at fishing, not so much at catching! Every once-in-a-while we’ll have a good day.

We decided to try for our first bass of the year today. Fishing was slow and the wind was bad, but we still had fun and managed our best bass ever from Mantua. This was our only fish of the day, but it was worth it. After a few pictures we let it go for someone else to have some fun with.

Great fish. That’s a good way to start the bass season.

Welcome and thanks for joining. Looks like those kids will have a great memory to share.

Sweet lmb! I wonder what’s been chewing on his tail!

5

My God, what a bass!!! :astonished: What did he way. Did you release it? That would have been a tough decision to make for me. [:/]

6

Don’t know what he weighed. I guessed about 5 pounds. Yes, we did let it go.

That is one fat bass, nicely done! Too bad that tail is all chewed up! Great job releasing it.

8

Excellent catch !! And thanks for releasing her, she was obviously on the bed.

Nice fish and THANK YOU for releasing her. That is an old fish that would take over ten years to replace. Now she is off to spawn and make babies for our children to catch in a few years!!!

So no weigh, but maybe a measure? 5lbs looks about right, over 20 easy I’d guess.

That fat mamma has been around the block and it shows. Few battle scars. Very nice CPR there. Well done. Happy kids!

Nice to know there are some Hogs in there.All I have caught at Mantua are usually 10’'ers-Good job-Quality over quantity any day.

That is a beast for mantua.

That sure is a nice one! I am shocked by how low that water looks too.

Great fish. Thanks for the pics and DOUBLE thanks for letting her go!

Dang! Nice fish!

A few bass reported out of Mantua so far this year! Can’t wait to head up there and try for my first bass of the season!

Thanks for the report!

That’s a great bass. If you’re only going to get one for the day, that’s sure a good one :slight_smile: Looks like they’re starting to wake up.
