Blue Lk Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 It seems I get nesting smallmouths under my dock every year. Normally they come out & give you a bump around the ankles,decided to catch the "action the other day. GF had the camera while I aproached the dock. The jerk surprised me when he dashed out & bite my big toe. As you may be able to tell,he surprised me pretty good. Click for short vid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 Cool video man. I've never seen a bass do that before. It looked like she really grabbed on for a second there! She would have held on for longer if he'd have used scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
