Well, that was interesting...

Had a first today.

Took a client out on a guided trip to Webster Lake for smallmouth and
largemouth bass.

As the morning progressed, we had done ok, nothing spectacular, but
just before we headed in, I set him up with a spinning reel and a
small 1/2 ounce Kastmaster to hit a spot that usually produces late in
the day.

He managed to chuck the thing into the overhanging trees and wouldn't
you know it - a really nice sized largemouth came out of the water and
grabbed onto the lure just as he was pulling it out of the water.

4 lbs of largemouth hanging off the Kastmaster about a foot in the
air.

I laughed so hard I almost fell out of the boat.

He managed to get free before I could get the camera - that would have
been a good one.

I caught a largemouth on a favorite stretch of river in Florida the
same way! Only mine was landed, snapped the twig that was holding the
line when the fish jumped up at the Tequila Sunrise 7" worm
