Craig Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, ouch! When that happens to me (and it does more often that I like) I get selective amnesia - I just remember the sigh of the bass coming out the deep to hit my lure and conveniently block out the memory of the same lure flying past my ear seconds later...its a gift brgbassmaster and Zigtherat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigpoppabass Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Those boatside hits r tricky. Especially when they don't show themselves. brgbassmaster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brgbassmaster Posted July 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Those boatside hits r tricky. Especially when they don't show themselves. Problem is I watched her follow all the way out. Suck it down inches from me. Execution was perfect. Ddint jump the gun. Watched it disappear in her mouth just somhow the hooks didn't catch any of her mouth YELOSUB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched it disappear in her mouth just somhow the hooks didn't catch any of her mouth That has happened several times to me...It is unreal that they can engulf a mouth full of treble hooks and not get caught by any, they are so smart...They get big for a reason I guess...Keep at it... brgbassmaster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigpoppabass Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Reminds me of bigmouth vid showing bass inhale and exhale a crankbait without fisherman knowing it. It might be on utube.

DeeMoeWin Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 Reminds me of bigmouth vid showing bass inhale and exhale a crankbait without fisherman knowing it. It might be on utube. Sounds like you're referring to a clip from Glen Laou's "Bigmouth" or "Bigmouth Forever" (i forget which one exactly it's from) Both documentaries are far beyond their time when they were filmed and still currently have some of the best under water footage i have seen. bigpoppabass and brushhawg1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tHeINFamoUS Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 I know that pain all too well. This was the result of my first taker on the phoney shad. It was a big girl too, all she gave me was some scale lol. brgbassmaster and danthefisherman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
