I'll be there, no Nitro alas..... the front Lowrance is dead, and the boat is still pretty soaked.

Here's the two I got today.  Both came out of 44ft on a tube with leadhead.  Russ and Bob Paysno also got bit, and Bob broke one off today.  Were seeing alot of fish on the graph north of 520.
Top one is around 2lbs  the bottom one was around 3 to 3.5lbs

nice fish, but don't forget to fizz them....i noticed some other winter smallies on video on that new site that were not fizzed. a lot of the time even if they don't look like they need it,  they still do.

do you beleive that even thought they were released immedietely that you should still fizz them?  it was always my thought that it would be harder on the fish to take the time to fizz instead of a quick release.  what do you guys think? i dont wanna kill fish.

From what I've hear and read...it is best to release immediately and oberve the progress of the fish....then, if the fish is too tired/stressed to dive, or floats back up later, fizz them and attempt release again. the mortality % is said to double with every handling/trauma. If you plan on keeping the fish in the livewell them Fizzing immediately is said to be best....I watched the Elite Series footage from Lake Erie I believe and Arron Martens fizzed every fish as they were caught.

Troy,

Great video. You looked like a professional guide out there with great commentary ( "Oh he just crushed it").
