New Pb 9Lbs. 1Oz

[Getfit74]

   Was super excited about this one. Had a cookout at my house labor day weekend and told my fishing partner to bring a rod over and we would mess around this pond pretty close to my house. I told him not to expect much but we would probably catch a bunch of little ones, I've fished this pond for close to 10 years and never caught anything over 2lbs.

 

  The only thing that made me sick was that I just got a Drift HD Ghost camera a month earlier and I've been carrying it with us everytime we fish. This one time I was just thinking aw we'll just catch a few little ones no need to bring the camera, boy was that a mistake. Lesson learned the camera comes with us at all times now. Luckily my buddy brought his phone for some pics and a short video after the catch.

   Really wish I would have caught the whole thing on video it was hilarious when i hooked the fish my buddy heard the drag going crazy and said got a good one? I said nah just a catfish no big bass in here. It jumped about 20 feet from the bank and my buddy went crazy, I'll never forget him yelling holy crap it's a 10lber don't let it off. Thought he was going to swim out and get it. Was a great time and will always be a memorable moment for me. In conclusion lesson learned always bring your camera you never know when your going to catch that new PB. I did get the video that my buddy got from his Iphone, as you can tell I was pretty excited, lol

Awesome fish that's crazy you have been fishing that spot for 10 years and there was basically a 10lber swimming around amongst a bunch of dinks. I always bring my camera for this exact moment.

Had a similar story with me and a member on here Bass Czar I hooked a fish WAAAAAAY into double digits. We had a similar Convo that you and your buddy had. Got a fish yeah probably a 4lber then saw it jump and we both bugged out add 10lbs to that lol. Got hung up in Lilly pads and my mono snapped, totally my fault I was wayyyy to excited an wasn't thinking clearly obviously when u see a fish that big that you have hooked how can you! It has been braid ever since!

Again man great looking fish congrats on the PB! Too bad she didn't eat a 6oz fish before she too your bait then you would be in the double digit club, I'm still waiting on my membership lol

That is just a great looking fish. Great little video too. That rush of emotion you can tell you're having in that video I think is what keeps us all coming back!
