Eli Lowen's First Smallmouth Bass

Eli caught this bass while fishing with his grandfather.

Keith Okimoto
Eli Lowen, Age 5, while fishing Boulder Reservoir in Colorado in June, 2004 caught his first decent catch on his first rod & reel. He was fishing with his grandfather Keith Okimoto. Keith says "Remember when? - check his smile!" It does bring back memories of my first bass. Keith was not sure if this was a largemouth or smallmouth. Looks like a smallmouth bass to me. Keith makes lead free jigs for sale. Check out his web site below.
