"The Kamikaze Hawg Bass".... a fishin` Tale.
"The Kamikaze Hawg Bass" a fishin` Tale.
Gotta tell ya `bout this one Gang.... Was out & about in my `Yak at daybreak today..... havin` a go at some Largemouth Bass.......And this was one mornin` I wish I had brought the `ol Go PRO....... because of what happened. Wasn`t out in the `Yak ten minutes, when this big Hawg nailed the Zoom Fluke I was tossin`......What fight! The monster Hawg dove under the `Yak several times peelin` line from the reel & makin` the drag scream! After several spectacular jumps, the beast of a Bass dove under the `Yak once again........And the thing that happened next, well..... let`s just say I`d have a better chance at winning the Lottery before seein` this happen again...... The powerful BucketMouth literally burst into the air literally in front of the `Yak........ I could not believe how high it jumped as it broke the surface!....... As it came back down, it abruptly hit it`s head on the front point on my `Yak....... and slowly slid off the side back into the lake. I stared momentarily in disbelief.......I couldn`t believe what I saw had just happened..... The Bass quickly came back to it`s senses and darted about a bit before I finally netted the gallant warrior greenback. Barely hooked in the lip, I quickly removed the Zoom Fluke, snapped a couple pictures and went to release the beautiful Bass back into the lake........... And realized something was wrong...... As the Bass appeared to be recovered, but couldn`t hold itself right-side up...... Apparently the Kamikaze Hawg Bass was indeed just that........and at the end of the road. Now I basically always practice Catch & Release...... but I also don`t believe in wasting a good fish, when it`s injured and isn`t going to make it. So that Kamikaze Hawg Bass was enjoyed by a Friend who had been asking me for a fresh fish tonight, after I filleted it for him.......... The Kamikaze Hawg Bass was 20 inches 5.3lbs...... THE END.

Re: "The Kamikaze Hawg Bass".... a fishin` Tale.
Nice Larry indeed there Ken!! Some crazy fight too! Good thing you tossed em to someone that'll eat. 🍻!! If I'm in clean water and have a mishap where the fish doesn't make it, I'm usually the one taking him home. But if I have a mishap where I usually fish, in the dirty river water, I call up a fellow that I've seen keeping these fish...any fish.😵 Took his phone # for this exact reason.😀
Dope report & sweet Larry!!
