There is a man in my town who tells fishing-tales about his efforts to catch smallmouth bass. Now it may not sound too much like a very good story, but he says that something very large grabbed hold of his line and pulled him out of his boat and into the water. Smallmouth Bass won’t do that.

In this fishing story, he says that he brought light gear along with him because these fish are hard fighters. The lighter gear makes it easier to control the fish once it starts fighting. Very light rods and reels make fishing for smallmouth Bass much more fun. He had used a jitterbug as his top water bait and was just waiting to get a bite.

Suddenly, his fishing tale becomes a bit more interesting. He says that the bug went well under the water and the line became tight. He thought he had a Smallmouth Bass that was fighting him. This was not good because he was close to jagged rocks. Jagged rocks are great places to find Smallmouth Bass. He wasn’t sure how deep the water was, which also made him think he might have been caught on something, but this was moving. It was fighting him and he eventually lost his footing.

Once he finally fell into the water and was under the surface, he said he was eye to eye with something that looked like an over sized smallmouth bass. This is one of those fishing-tales that has everyone asking, “Was it really?”

Fishing-Tales wants to Know. Was it? Come on Jim tell me!!
