Sometimes just dumb luck will get ya a nice fish

Featured Replies

My wifes cousion is a big ole goofball. Love being around him. Always doing some crazy thing that comes to his mind. He is 17 years old. The other day he picked up one of those little 2 foot spider man poles at walmart. He took it out to a pond in back of his house. Ended up catching a nice blue gill on a worm. Than he got this bright idea to see how far he could cast the blue-gill with his "little rod". He tossed that blue gill out into the middle of the pond and started to reel. A big ole bass grabbed on and he dragged the thing all the way to the shallows where it then let go.

Just the other day he then bought a 1/2 ounce spinnerbait lol and put it on. Ended up catching a nice 19" LMB with the spider man pole and the spinnerbait that obviously was way to heavy for the rod. How he did not snap that little pole with that fish and spinnerbait I don't know. Meanwhile I have been struggling to get a nice size LMB for the past week. Go figure. Kind of made me mad that he was just screwing around and ended up getting a nice fish lol. Dumb luck I guess. ;D

I just give him credit to be able to work that 1/2 ounce spinnerbait on that tiny rod and reel.

Dumb luck plays a role in all aspects of fishing  ;)

Still irritating though  >:(

I caught a 19 and a half inch lady bass on a one-inch white grub on a 1/64 silver jig head with four-pound line on a 4 foot ultralight rod.

Congratulations on the catch.  

I did what your cousin did.  Let her run all around and play herself out.

My heart rate doubled after I figured out she was not a catfish but a big bass.

Now its your turn to go and catch her.
