Pelican Lure

Today, I hook a fat 16-18" bass-then a pelican swoops in and gulps it whole. I grab its beak, yank my hook out. bass so heavy the pelican's jaw's stuck open, flapping like an idiot. I'm one-handing its beak, other hand lipping the fish, dodging puke the whole time. wrestle this dumb bird till I rip my fish back and let it swim away. 
pelican's traumatized. no pictures 😂

    I did not want to reinforce that fisherman equal food. I don't know if he could've swallowed it anyway
