Dave Bailey Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 Throwing a Chug Bug off the causeway at Mitchell Lake, got a few strikes but the only one that latched on was this guy. Took it down so deep I had to cut the line and remove the lure backward through the gill. Just a quick pic while the hook was slowly working its way into my finger, fortunately didn't get too far. Fish was released and swam away immediately, no doubt with an unbelievable story to tell his buddies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimace Posted June 26, 2011 Report Share Posted June 26, 2011 That is the way it goes. He is a healthy looking lad. Hopefully you made a deal with him that requires complete secrecy on what happened. That is what I do. I point my finger at them and say "You don't tell a bloody soul about this". To my knowledge, no fish I released have ever broken their silence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
