So my fiancee wants to go walk in a park tonight that has a community pond. So I figure.. eh I probably wont catch anything but Ill throw it out and see if I cant get a hit. So we get down there and its nothing... no bites.

So I go to a cove like spot with some over hanging trees and cattails on both sides. Throw out a bright red rattle(No. 6 gama hooks). Reeling it in and my lure comes to a dead spot. Next thing I know im fighting some kind of pig... 30 or 40 seconds into the battle Lure pops out of its mouth... Suspense over. Never saw the fish... I think it was a cat (Last time I had a fish fight me like that it was a 9lb 10 oz channel)

I cant imagine the size bass it wouldve been had it really been one... and I just pray it wasnt one lol. I could live losing a cat in 10lb range... not a bass however.

Anyone else got any interesting stories like that?
