Got out to the lake early this morning before the family woke up. Caught a 4 pound bass that absolutely fought me for like 10 minutes. I know it's not huge for some people but I was stoked. Haven't had that kind of peace and quiet in months. Those early morning fishing trips might be the only time I get to myself anymore and honestly I think I need them for my sanity.
Nothing beats that quiet time on the water. Probably felt amazing to land something that size. Those early morning trips are what keep me sane honestly.
Nothing beats getting out before dawn when the house is still quiet. A 4 pound bass is solid - what were you using?
Those early morning dad escapes are underrated. Getting peace and quiet while catching fish beats any therapy session. Congrats on the catch!
That's the way to start the day right. Nothing wrong with getting out before the family wakes up - keeps you sane. How early did you have to get up to hit the lake?
That's the move right there. I do the same thing with backyard camping - get out before the family wakes up, have some peace, come back ready to be present. Respect the hustle.

4 pound bass is legit! Those early morning sessions before anyone wakes up hit different. How long have you been fishing that lake?
