The bass that really liked senkos

[SpinLight]

Attached is a pic of a nice spotted bass I caught on a senko yesterday. If you look at its mouth, you will see a second senko sticking out that he was regurgitating while I was landing him. I removed the second worm, which fortunately did not have a hook attached, and released him. One was a four-inch bait and the other was a five-inch.

that happened to me.  my fish was about 13" long and it had FOUR Senkos in it's mouth and gullet.  i pulled what i could and let it go.

Not bad, I’d say. I’ve caught quite a few bass that had Senkos or (in this case) Yum Dingers stuck in their craw.

Happens with stickbaits the most because they fly off the hook the most . Bass just slurp them off bottom

You'd think by now people would discover twistlock hooks. Worms or anything else rarely come off with them.

Caught this fish on a Keitech underspin that had a Keitech underspin lodged in it's throat.

Lake trout will eat them off the bottom too.

What happens to a bass that eats a stick worm? Does it dissolve and pass through, get regurgitated, or stay in their digestive system and cause them to die?

[roadwarrior]

All of those outcomes can occur.

There are a 1 or 2  lakes around the metro Detroit area that have lake trout stocked.  Some of them ( not all)  that were caught and cleaned were literally full of plastic worms.   Eventually it will kill them.  Lake trout are more vulnerable to this as they spend a lot of their time near the bottom looking for easy meals
 

 

im kinda surprised the anti’s aren’t all over this. Luckily as far as I know they have never made a big deal out if it. 
 

Losing a worm fighting a fish is what it is. Tossing tore up plastic intentionally in the lake is another.

I caught this bass a couple of years ago.  The green bait is mine and the pink one was stuck deep in the bass' throat.  I'm not sure how long it was in there but I had to use pliers to get it out.
