    I was fully expecting to hear a big turtle had latched on to the bluegill. What a bass! Caught with your hands, no less. That is so cool

    Hi Kid,

    My first guess was a turtle too. That's a very impressive fish. If you have any extra surprises like that please send a couple my way. 8T

    I've never heard of a bass actually trying to take a fish from a stringer. I saw a gator eat a whole stringer of fish including the chain stringer when I used to fish in the Everglades, but I pretty sure the guys wern't interested in trying to bring it in the boat to have a look Nice fish and I'm glad that you sent her on her way.

    With such a severe case of 'hollow-belly', I am surprised she didn't take your hand when you reached for the stringer! She very clearly had just finished spawning. The possibility now exits that you can catch her again after she has recovered from the spawn and regained her weight. NICE FISH.
