the whole reason I got into swimbait fishing was when i saw a 10 inch bass being reeled in by my dad, then a 8lb+ bass come slowly from the depths and inhales it withouth skipping a beat!!! Then of coarse my dad tried to reset the hooks to nail the bigger bass and yanked the little one right out of its mouth :o
I dont have the luxury of fishinng in a trout stocked pond, but i'm sure a small bass is still on the menu during those summer months, but what do I know, you guys are the experts.!!
