Went out for a couple of hours this evening made it out of CFP just before the TX started. we headed to another spot and started out using 10 1/2 inch pumpkin worm T-rig in 30ft of water no takers, on that or DD sexy shad,<br />We decided to go for crappie using natural shad color curly tail and used white dipped BG shad, I wont talk about the crappie that we caught , but the bass I hooked into was one of the best fights that I have had in some time, This one is a PB for me, I was using a ultra light short rig, six pnd test Mr Crappie line in about 30 ft of water using a 15 to 20 count and slow retrieve , The bass busted water a couple of times then dove down stretching my line and making my drag sing a little. I fought it from heading torwards the trolling motor, I finally landed it, what a relief I did not loose it.<br />It&#39;s my biggest smallie so far. we had to call it a night with all the traffic, The water got to rough to stay on point, there is always in the morning God willing.<br />I would love to hook up with some large smallie&#39;s in the future what a fight for this guy!!
