	| I had just barely cast out my bobber, with a shiner 2 feet below it. It seemed like it was only 5 seconds afterwards when my bobber shot down into the water. I  set the hook and reeled the fish in. I was standing in the water, up to my knees, and when the fish came closer, I became kind of scared. I noticed that it was a bass, so i grabbed it with my hand and couldn't believe it. 22 inches, 5.3 lbs. |
