6145, My First Swimbait Bass
Posted by Lightninrod, Thu Apr-21-05 04:17 PM
Well, it's not a "Trophy" Bass by any means but I am no longer a "Swimbait Virgin :-) ".

I threw Matt's Male Bluegill in 4-5' of water in a small cove and as I was reeling it back just fast enough to get the tail moving, I felt the lightest of thumps thru my Kistler Helium 7', 6" Extra Heavy Casting rod and I set the hook. I truly thought she was bigger than the 3lbs, 13 ozs she weighed but I'll take her:) .

Now I've got the confidence to throw one more often and it feels GOOD!
