The times I have experienced this, more than once, there was quite a number of bass competing for the lure. With the hooks I use it is highly unlikely they were hooked in the mouth first. Gill plates, head shots, between the eyes, back near head and mid ship.

When reeling I got a stuttered hooked effect.... meaning it felt like I almost hooked the fish multiple times while reeling in but it was pulling free....and I felt other bumps on the line as well...Night fishing.... I went back to my vehicle this one time and switched reels to one with mono and did not have the same experience.

Good health and family
