Solid Nova Scotia Smallmouth

I’ve been fishing 3-4 times a week for most of the season here in Nova Scotia. I’ve got plenty of fish, at least 50 bass by my count (they make you track that here on your license). Yet, after all of those bass, I haven’t caught one over a pound. My buddy Dominic from work, just got himself a new fishing rod a few weeks back and took me out to a lake he’s been fishing recently. Right away he catches a nice bass, and then another later that afternoon. Meanwhile I kept catching baby bass after baby bass. I even put on a bigger lure, and still got little fish. I’m gonna chalk it up to beginners luck, but he out fished me bad.

I offered to land this smallmouth for him since it’s been so long since I’ve handled a good size fish

I was planning to wait till my tattoo was healed before posting photos, but I am so happy with it already that I cant wait that long to post about it! I spent 4+ hours under the gun and the final result turned out exactly as planned. I bet there is nothing worse for an artist then doing black work for several hours, but Travis (at Sin On Skin here in Halifax, NS) lived up to his reputation and did some excellent work.
