I was trolling the bottom and stopping and letting it sink then giving it a quick jerk the BAM.. At first I thought it was a snag bc my pole ( a saltwater spinning set up for heavy duty catches) was bending like when you get a snag so I started reeling and then it hit me it was a monster and she was pulling the drag hard I fought for at least a minute and then my friend took my pole and he pulled her up to the side and I got her by the mouth and to my surprise it was a monster basss
