Jigs from a kayak! OMG it's making me nuts. A boat or bank fishing I wouldn't be losing these fish due to leverage or detecting the bite!

Changing direction during the fight - guilty of that from the bank when they head for cover, bridges, etc..

I recognize those rods😉. Trey would be proud

Brian Latimer is there a reason for the bobber/weight stop on the line?

Locked it down like a lawnmower in wet grass 🤣 . That took me back to my lawn and landscape crew days!😂

Thank you to all for the recommendations! 

That's a chunk! Congrats!

Kevin Skovenski lol me too! Guaranteed to stick myself half a dozen times just tieing a crankbait on.

Kevin Skovenski that works if it's only one barb.

I feel your pain. Dink bass yo-yo'd up the line and got me. Firm believer in fish gripper now when it comes to little bass and treble hooks
