I must had of cast out the same bait 20 or 30 times, I would get a follow, but no bite. On my about 30th cast, I got the bite. The bass just went nuts...thrashing all over! Not a bad bass at all for the canal I fish. If I had to guess I would say she was a little over 2 lbs, as I didn't bother weighing her, I just wanted to release her as quickly as possible. I also noticed some bite marks on her back fin -- I'm thinking either a gar or pickerel got a good bite of her when she was smaller. Who can guess what bait is in her mouth? It's probably an easy guess ;).

Dems fightin' words. You wouldn't be saying that if he caught it on an alabama rig LOLOLOL

At least you have soft water. I won't be fishing til March
Is "basstiality" the same as sleeping with the fishes?
