I was fishing a neighborhood pond using my new spinning reel. Had 15 lb braid, moss green color Fireline. Using a small hook with a wacky rigged wave worm tiki stick. (wave worm's senko) and i circled this little pond and was about to leave. On my last cast my drag goes running out. It was set pretty high. I was fighting with this fish and when i got it in i was amazed by its size it was at least 8lbs and could easily be more. I didnt have a scale and if i can figure out how to get my pics off my phone ill post it. The hook was deep set in the top of its mouth and as i cut it i noticed the hook loosened. So i got it out. I sat with the fish while it regained its strength and there it went. That is the largest LMB i have caught in my life.
