What the ....?

Last night I was at my friends house and we took 5 light action rods and hooked them up with small hooks and hot dogs to catch some bullheads. With a light rod its a lot of fun catching 2# and 3# bullhead every couple of seconds, and they fight pretty well.


Anyways it was probably about midnight when my little brothers tiny zebco spincaster(that I brought without askin him) doubles over and I set the hook. I feel the thing and I think its a friggin gator, it is just peeling out so much drag and just ripping through the water. Then I see it jump and I about soiled myself it was a huge a** bass leaping out of the water. I finally land the thing and unhook it. My biggest bass to date, estimated by me and my friend to be 10lbs. I've caught a number of 7 and 8 pound bass and had them weighed, but this was easily a few pounds heavier than any of those I had ever caught. It didn't have the typical sagging gut of a lunker but this was the looooongest bass I had ever seen anyone catch. I just thought it was kind of funny, I catch my biggest bass ever on a piece of hot dog, 6lb test line, and an ultra-lite rod.


I almost forgot to mention, I was giddy as a school girl after catching it. I could've died right then and there and been happy.
