Went over to Moses Lake Sunday Evening after church with two buddies and my brother. Caught a lot of small largemouth bass and decided to leave and go register at Mar Don. On my final cast I hooked into what I thought was a 5lb Largemouth bass was in reality the biggest CRAPPIE I ever seen. I was fishing with 4lb test of the bridge, so I had to this Goliath of fish, My brother went under the bridge for me to land he the fish to the bank and when I brought up to the land, he picked it up like a baby in his arms and the fish must have rattled him a little with it huge mouth, my brother dropped the fish and broke the jig in it's mouth and flopped back into the water. Either that was a very smart fish or we were really stupid fishermen that day because we didn't have a net. five other people witnessed this record challenging fish out the water and we all felt like crying. I am still having nightmares, I might need fish counseling (ha-ha) Keep on fishing this one was going to get mounted (Sorry Catch and Release Guys)
