So I park the little aluminum boat in between a couple branches of this down tree about 20-25 feet away and throw in my bait. After a few attempts I got a reaction and the fish picked up my hula grub by one of the legs and carried it out of the bed#-o So I was a little upset 
After that was waiting for the male to move back in after a bad pitch spooked him out and I look under my boat and there is BIG MAMA a monster at any standards laying under my boat thinking it is pretty nice. I froze :shaking2: for a minute thinking "what do I do now?" Than I picked up my secret sause soaked the bait and very lightly dropped the hula right in front of the fish and the next thing I know it is FISH ON!!!! She ran from the boat into deep water and I was like cool!!! But as I went to follow her she turned back to the tree :pale: In a matter of moments she was tied up 
So I went over and was try to untangle the line while she is crashing around in the water not 15 feet away. Well she had my line nice and tied up so I cut it at the real and went around to see if I could grab the line from the other side and as I come around the tree I see a white belly thrashing around 5 feet under me so I try to reach down and grab her but my arms are not long enough so I know the only wat to reach her is to put at least my upper body in the water :rambo: So I stpip off my shirt and glasses and lay down on the seat and down I go... About the time I am streching to grab her lip the boat is suddenly not under me any more 
So as I pull my self in the boat I see my beast of a fish swimming down the bank](*,) Moral of the story is BRING A NET!!!!](*,)
