Well, against my beeter judgement and some of your judgments too, we did go to Black lake on Saturday morning. And there was a pretty terrible algae bloom. However, that didn't stop my Dad from catching one of the biggest large mouths I've ever witnessed. The pig had to have been about 7 to 8 pounds. Unfortunately, just as my Dad got his hand on him to pull him out of the water, he spit the hook, and off he went, no picture.

He did however catch another large mouth around 4 pounds that I did get a picture of.
I wish I could say it was a decent day for me too, but I caught mostly dinks. All in all, a pretty slow day. Together we probably only managed 8 to 10 fish, but the big one really made the trip worth it.
It looks like you guys have a fish-in there this weekend. Some advice: don't pass up the opportunity to fish all the pad fields, they seemed to be producing pretty well, and be prepared to give your boat a good washing after your done, the algae and weeds are super thick.
