Great. Just great. So much for catch and release. Now I gotta carry a 12 gauge with #5 shot and shoot all of my fish before I pick them up. Thanks, Thanks alot.
Guys I can't take credit for that one. I copied the pic from Outdoorlife.com. Some reader had caught the bass and sent it in.
Sure makes me think about taking a peek the next time I unhook a bass, though. My luck it would have just swallowed a cotton mouth....................."Hey did ya hear about the monster bass ole Jasper caught?! Well, unfortunately he died from a snake bite before he could even show it off........."
