Default Aaaahhhhh!

God im am so mad at myself! Last night i was fishing the St.johns and came a across a nice little spot. so i was flipping there and i got a huge strike. well i got the bass up to the boat and relized the thing must have been 9 to 10 lbs. this thing was huge and fat. when i went down to grab it the thing freaked out (i would freak out too if i shall a 6 ft person trying to grab me) anyways it shook and unhooked it self. oh i was mad. Does anyone know what the chances of catching the same fish another day on a flowing river? And im buying a landing net this weekend.

yes the fish might strick again. i thinks its been said is that all a bass needs is fifteen minutes to forget what he just did so go ahead and try it again.

I know for a fact, that I have caught the same fish twice in one day. I think they will and do forget after a short time, maybe like an hour or less, then again, some fish that may have been more severely traumatized maynot strike for hours or even days.
