ghost Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 True fish story and all 3 pics, same bass. Using a yum craw dad on ultralight. I felt a bite, set the hook...using 6lb nanofil braid...line snaps...OH S***!!!! I see the line 6-8' away in the water...and the line starts moving away. I think fast, pull my cell phone from my pocket and put it on the grass..I wade out to retrieve the line. I'm fighting the bass using my hands on the line...never done that before! I pull the bass close and land it! I was beyond thrilled, didn't lose the bass, didn't have so many feet of braided line floating in the water and I get a bass after so many weeks of goose egg fishing. I ended up catching 4 bass before leaving the lake! Epically a cool day of catching! 2 Quote

lectricbassman Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Awesome! Ive snagged abandoned lines before and found myself hoping a giant fish is on the other end. Hasnt happened yet though! Quote
