Default Summertime Slob!

I've been a bit quiet on here the past couple weeks, since there hasn't been much to report. I was hoping I could knock the dust off this afternoon by hitting up a local bass pond. I started out throwing a slug-go, and hooked up with a few small bass. After a lull in the action, I switched over to a weedless frog, and a few casts later it gets annihilated. Luckily I was spooled up with hefty braid, and was able to bring the fish in through the weeds and sticks. I could tell she was big when she hit, but I was floored when I got her in. I didn't have a tape or scale with me, but she was every bit of 20" and thick, definitely 5+ pounds. Releasing her was a bit of an adventure, but eventually the fish swam off strong.
