Dang son, that fish is as long as my 10 year old daughter!
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

I was having a hard day on the water. It was my first day in months and I had bites but somehow failed to process it.
I had a solid six lber in the pads but it felt weightless and so i gently pulled up only to see the fish kiss me goodbye.. Out of shear desperation I picked up the Megabass DTC and TDZ r+ ZPI combo and the silent OSP HPF ( so many acronyms ). After two cast not parallel the pads but not perpendicular either this fish hit. He ran and ran yet the DTC was on his but like a heat seeking missile. This fish went underneath the boat one three separate occasion but eventually the battle was in my favor. I got him into the boat and I am not sure how but seems he slapped at the bait and got head hooked.. I really wanted to cast the lure some more but fear of the dreaded bowfin was too great and I just didnt cast anymore... Still this battle was epic and memorable.. I tried to measure him but forgot to weight him..

Nice work man, great fish! Love randomly picking up a bait and catch something right away, and you did it well =D>

Beautiful fish and tackle!

What is the jig head/weight you are using, if I may ask?
