Actually CrappiePappy and I were at Cedar Creek killin' time fishing for them hawg crappie. We were up in a cove fishing water about 2' deep and having a great time. We heard a loud "SPLASH" and looked down the bank an older fellow was fighting a HUGH...and I do mean HUGH bass. We watched him for awhile and that thing was jumping and running all over the place. We both agreed it was pushing at LEAST 8+lbs...no BS, no kidding, no joke. This thing was as big around as a football. It came unbuttoned on him and we both were like...."dang". Guys/gals this was the biggest bass I have ever seen hooked on a line, mine or anyone's. If you are reading this post buddy...I sure hope you get to tangle with that beast again. It was a good one.
Now those hawg crappies...they were no match for us! We must have caught 75-100 of them. To bad it would have taken them all to make a mess for a small fish fry!! Fred out.
