BirdNestBen Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 About 2 weeks ago, the fish were really biting at a small lake.... I hung a bass and he swam in a tree and I had to break the line... I didn't know the weight of the fish- but just popped off he was a 10 pounder!!!!!!! A few casts later I hung that same fish and pulled my shiny red hook out of his mouth that had been broken off... he didn't even weigh a pound.... Then, down by the dam, my backlash so was bad I had to cut the line... the fish were really biting so I pulled the line in by hand quickly to get my spinnnerbait back... the weirdest feeling in the world happened as a 4 lb. bass struck that spinnerbait!!!!!!!! My friend said what in the world are u doing??? About that time that nice bass jumped sky high out of the water, and I pulled him in by hand!!!!!!!!!! all this happened the same day- go figure......... ;D Quote

BassinSoldier Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 My buddy had a break off when I was back in FL on leave one time. He was using a shallow crank and he pulled it back hand over hand and got bit...By his PB! 8 and some change! His index finger was cut up a bit but he got it in. Guess the whole errati ;c retrieve thing works, huh? ;D Quote
