Yellow fish

I caught this yellow the past weekend (26 May 2013) on a bass lure (is that luck or what) while fishing a bass competition on the Vaal river (between Vereeniging and the Barrage). I took a pic and released it immediately. It gave me a very hard fight on my bass outfit. Beautiful fish!1

WOW Vaalie great stuff! I would also like to know on what lure you caught it? Plastic, jig or crank? That is one beaut of a largemouth yellowfish:wfish

Thanks everybody!

I caught it on a plastic Craw on a Texas rig (probably looks like a crab)! It was next to one of the bridge pile foundations. It grabbed the lure like a bass, but as soon as I set the hook it stayed down and I knew it was not a bass.

Think few largemouths will say no to that setup, they sure love crabs and that plastic is pretty close to the real deal
