before that incident I never even thought about Bass on flies. that changed my ways
I have caught a few 1 to 2 lbs, I thought I had hooked onto the worlds biggest trout. about halfway through the fight he broke water and then I knew I was in trouble. I never dreamed I could land him , all I did then is kept the pressure on him only about a 1Lb. I really got excited when he began to tire out.I took him home and ate him. I was still in the army and the meat was a welcome sight. we ate a lot of fish back then.
