Spooning for bass when a group of spawning salmon swam right through my line. Accidentally snagged it but a catch is a catch right??

Christopher Cauthen 0I have a house in New Mexico. That's where I've been for the last week in a half. I work in North Dakota though and I have an apartment there. That's ...more where I'm headed now. Back up north.

Jimbo Harwood 0Lol I bet it was, I got a king earlier today on light gear.. it was a blast.
-
Christopher Cauthen 0Nope not by the mouth. I was spooning for bass when they swam through and I snagged him by the tail believe it or not. Didn't even mean to snag him. You can ...more snag here for salmon but not till October. Great fight though on a light rod. Lol
