Just thought I would share my story from my lost PB largemouth. It was last summer me and my little cousin were out fishing, we went out at about 7 AM and she wanted to go back to the cottage to take a break from fishing around 9-10 AM, I went back out by myself and was hoppin a T-Rig on the edge of some sunken milfoil and sure enough it gets heavy and starts to move. Set the hook and this thing is fighting pretty good so I bring her up to the surface and grab the net (Joys of fishing alone ) Me being clumsy as all hell lift the bass out of the water before I bring the net over and she shakes off the hook, and swims away, Tried catchin her again for a week but got nothing. It was about 6-7 LB'er. To this day I swing them in the boat, or lip them in the water unless someones with me. 

Happens to all of us. Sometimes it hurts pretty bad.

Oh well, stuff happens. Go get a bigger one! Nice to see some more people from Ontario on BR!
