Wife's first bass
 
It would be a lot cooler if I had a pic but had no camera. My wife caught her first bass today, we were taken a few casts on the Vineyard, late morning, pretty stormy, I caught a blue she took a cast with a white jig and nailed a schoolie @ 20 inches. She looked like she was fighting a blufin tuna. Pretty funny, but she was psyched. I tried to hook into a few for the kids but it was too windy and everyone wanted to bail on me!

She was telling everyone it was 15lbs :rolleyes:

My girlfriend caught her first 2 bass last year on consecutive casts. Now she understands why I love to fish so much. This will help a bunch in the long run :hihi:
