We all have one of these
Was fishing Mill Cove in Warwick, RI three years ago. Was right around this date, the weather was lousy, damp , raw, wind in your face. Well I had some fresh herring to chunk and tossed out a piece. I looked at the wife nice and warm in the van and said I'll give it a maybe 30 minutes. Just as I was ready to walk over and start winding it in, the rod went over. Using a bait runner I let it take some yardage out then set the hook with 2 heavy pulls. The reel sang its song and all I could do was watch the line peel off as the fish broke water. Its tail was over a foot wide and its body was at least 4 feet in length. It was the biggest bass I'd ever had on. I looked down and I had only about 75 yards of 20# test left, so yup.....I socked it down a notch and as I did the line parted. It's been the only Bass of this size that I've hooked up on but there has to be one more out there for me, so I still fish for it.
Now that's the.......
