Talking LM strikes again

so i really dont know a thing about these fish but i got lucky today and beat my personal best with a 5.3 LM .... with all this crazy weather and no spring to speak of . I had the chance to see there beds, and the bucks guarding them with the big hens swimming around the bucks .....WOW i never imagined that these fish were so skittish and elusive . Well here is a cell phone pic to share i sore lipped 4 fish today and non were under 3lbs


now i just want more and to beat my personal best

thanks everyone !!
I went out on sunday and blanked
the wind was up the rain came down and any break in the weather they were spooked and running . On the other note my fishing partner got a 15" trout on a spinner bait , dang thing took both hooks!
Fish & chips! well can anyone give me a clue why or how i could do anything more to get these buggers to be a lil more aggressive to getting on my hook?
thanks
JD

Nice Fish! Those love sick fish seem to be alittle moody right now. One day they smack anything close and another day they are spooky as heck.
