Somtimes I catch small fish and sometimes I just forget the hooks ( video)

I decided to fish at Lake Kedron one day last week instead of Varner. I had a young man to take fishing that had little experience bass fishing so we went to the easier lake to fish. Kedron is almost always good for numbers of small fish and I wanted to be sure he caught some fish. It was slow in the AM but in the afternoon it picked up and the fish started hitting rattletraps and redfins waked on the surface. The young man had recieved a Cordell Spot from his mom for his birthday that she had decided to hide in his birthday cake with the hooks removed. He had never fished any kind of lipless crankbait before but it didn't take him long and he was catching fish on it like a Pro. We didn't take any photos and most of the fish were small but he had a great time. The gentleman that brought him fishing had all the redfin strikes and they got me to thinking about a bait I had brought with me.

So, after dropping him and the guy that brought him fishing off at the ramp I decided to get out a bait that I had started making the day before and shoot some video. The bait didn't have any paint yet but that never matters too much as long as the action is good since the bait is white like a shad. After catching small fish with no big ones all day I just wish I had remembered to put some hooks on it. ;D First cast with the bait and it gets hit by a good one. Not a giant but way better than what we had caught all day. Just no hooks to get the fish. Someone posted on my last report that I always catch big bass. Sometimes I don't and sometimes I just forget to add hooks when the big one hits. ;D Here is a link to the video. 

looks like you still tried to set the hook haha cool video man

I had the hooks in the boat but just forgot to put them on after setting up the camera. I was aggravated at first but laughed at it after watching the video.
