I caught this on Blackwater today on a pink trickworm. The wife and I were just beatin the heat at the creek, glad I brought the fishin rod.

Nice one , especially for skinny water. I bet the lack of rain recently has the fish gathered up in some of the deeper holes.

Nice Catch!

Believe it or not, my dad used to catch tons of bass that big and bigger up blackwater south of deaton's bridge. You could actually take a smaller boat all the way up the river before it re-routed out through the swamp after hurricane Ivan. We were members of Panhandle Hunting Club and the back side of our property line was the river. Most of that club was taken over by the Hutton Game Reserve and the State Prison.

If you fish the creeks in that area hard, fish that size are really happen on a regular basis. We caught 1 off coldwater creek that was 7lbs 9oz.

These fish all came out of a smaller creek than that on the lower end of blackwater river. The largest was 6.9 in the right pic. The fish on the left side left pic was about 3.5
