Seeing Spots

"Peacock bass!" we jested when we saw the unusual spots on the sides of the jumbo bass I pulled from Conneaut Lake today. It was a pure largemouth, though, that tipped the scales to 6 pounds, 6 ounces. The big bass hit a Sebile Flatt Shad, as did a northern pike, a smallmouth and even a small muskie. Oh, and that snow the weatherman had been talking about... Some of it really did fall today. More in the forecast for tomorrow, which is scheduled to be a walleye day.
