Twice Caught Smallie

[Addicted to Smallies]

I was fishing on the Upper Potomac and the bite had really turned on. On one particular cast I hooked into a feisty little guy that fought pretty well and had some amazing jumps, only to lose him and my last senko on one of those head shakes near my canoe.

I drifted down the current for a bit while I retied with a watermelon tube, and then cast into to a new pool below the next set of riffles. Before the tube even hit bottom, I had another fish on and another fun fight. When I got him back to the boat, imagine my surprise to see my Senko hanging out of his mouth. Hooked him twice, and in two different pools probably 500 yards away from each other.

What a great story!  One of the best parts of the sport of bass fishing are the surprises that we experience while on the water.  Thanks for sharing and congrats on finally getting her into the boat!

Very cool, this doesn't happen quite often with bass.

That is one fast, hungry, crazy bass. Nice story with a pic for proof.

Northern Pike will lay under the boat as it m,oves along and this might has\ve been the case with your smallie. Good story, thanks for sharing.

Cool story! amazing to think after you hooked him once he went in the same directions you did and then got hooked up again. I guess it wasn't his day. I wonder if he would have bitten it if you had another of the same worm to tie on again.
