My biggest catch

in nature •  7 years ago 

IMG_20160220_213327.jpg It was an unseasonably warm day for January here in southern indiana and after weeks of being cooped up inside i was ready to take advantage of the nice day and do something outside. I was debating on what i wanted to do when out of the corner of my eye i caught a glimpse of my fishing pole. I knew then that I was going to go fishing. I grabed my pole and tied on my davorite fishing lure. I walked down the hill to the pond behind my house and seen that beautiful sight i had missed for so long. It was a beautiful day for January the sun was shinning and reflecting perfectly off the clear water of the pond. I wasent really expecting to catch anything as cold as tge water was but i was just happy to be out enjoying nature. I casted ny line out a few times with no luck then all of a sudden i felt my lure make contact with something solid. I knew that i had just got my favorite lure hung up on a log and i got very disapointed. I was jerking my line trying to get it free when all of a sudden my line went slack and then pulled real hard in the oposite direction. My heart started racing as i knew i haf just hooked a big fish. If any of you are fishermen you know the exact excitment im talking about. Well after a long hatd fight i finally wrestled the fish in and it was the biggest bass i had ever caught. I will never forget my excitement from that day which all started when i noticed my fishing pole sitting in the corner

So, looks like what about a 5 or 5 1/2 pounder? Just what was this favorite lure? Fisherman's rule states that if you're going to post and brag, you've got to provide details!

Yes it was around a 5 pounder out of a small pond behind my house and i caught it on a pb&j colored crankbait made by norman lures

Nice one! Are you going to send us the six pound pictures next year, or did he end up on the filet block?
