<br /> Alvin, his son Will and I hit Raccoon Mtn today after work. We went up into the gorge as usual and on our first spot Alvin gets a keeper LM around 2 lbs, I get one around 3.5 lbs and Alvin loses a solid 3 lber at the boat. All in about 10 minutes. Fun stuff. The 3.5 lber had its lower jaw broken which as and the reason I am holding it funny in the pic. I got another nice 2.5 lb keeper later on. All largemouths were thin and just off the beds.<br /> We caught fish all evening long. All fish tonight came on black/blue pig n jigs. We ended up boating 7 largemouth, 21 spots, 5 channel cats between 4-8 lbs, 3 google eyes (had a nice 9.75&amp;quot; one), a 5 lb drum and a really nice green sunfish. All fish were within 5 feet of the bank. Alvin took home a livewell full of spots and channel cats for his dad.<br /> Awsome evening and we were out of the wind for the most part. Love fishing in the gorge.
