Can you pinpoint the exact spot where you caught your very first bass?

I can. I remember it very well.

Dang I can remember the first fish,, a blue gill caught on a cane pole
from a great aunt's farm pond,, that was 51 years ago, it is the only
memory I have left when I was 3 years old, but I can still see
everything that happened that day. My older Brother flipping a cow paddy
getting the worms, the stick we used as a float, my cousin yelling for
me to raise the pole, when the stick went under, my Dad's face when I
ran up to the house to show him my fish. ( I will never forget that day
as long as I live)

My first Bass was just another fish I guess, as it does not stand out now

Now my son's first bass I remember, I even have a photo from 30 years
ago,, I will post it over on alt.binaries.pictures.fishing

No. But I'm sure I can get within1/4 mile. It was at New York's Cayuga Lake
and this was not my actual first bass, but my first keeper, in July 1970, a
year after I started fishing. I remember it just as if it were yesterday. A
16"er on a Hula Popper in mid-afternoon on a July day under bluebird skies.

1967 Arkansas, distant relative's farm pond, cane pole with a cricket,
probably 1.5# bass that was a blast on the cane pole and I "ain't been
right since". :)

========

(The first one)

The Stones River, right above the mill pond in Halls Hill, Tn. On a cane
pole with a worm. It was maybe 8 inches long.

(The last one)

This morning in front of the cabin, On a spinner bait, Ardent bait
caster, and Tour Edition Quantum PT rod. It was about 15 inches long.

Guess which one was the most fun, and the most memorable. :)

HA!

Too young to actually remember my first bass in detail, but Dad always
told me it was a 1/2 pounder caught on roach bait below a spinner with
cane pole, porcupine quill float, at Dacus Landing, just across the
mighty Mississippi River from Memphis. Six years old.

Echo Park in downtown Los Angeles.

I was about 11 years old and fishing for crappie with a little gold spoon.

I had finished a retrieve and was pulling the spoon out of the water when a
bass grabbed it.

Yanked it onto the bank and that was my first bass.
