Crazy Summer Bass Fishing (Hooked an Absolute Monster)!!

Hey guys! I just got back from a fun family vacation down at the beach and the ocean. We did a lot of awesome activities like going on the boardwalk and walking along the beach under the moonlight and swimming in the hotel pool, etc. Summer vacations are the best!
Now that I am home it is back to Fishing! I went to a pond that I haven't fished in about 4 years. This pond has a lot of Bass in it and some really big ones and they are always very aggressive.
I threw a variety of baits and caught several fish on topwater and the wacky worm and I also lost an absolute Monster - this Bass had to be at least 5 pounds maybe even 6 pounds. The fish got stuck in the mucky weeds along the bank and after wrestling with it for a bit the big fish was able to sneak away into the weeds and I was unable to land it unfortunately. It stinks but it happens.
As heartbreaking as it was to lose such a big fish, I did land several more and it was a lot of fun fishing at this pond - I will definitely go back here more often and see if I can land another Giant!
It was a crazy couple days of Summer Bass fishing!
I hope you enjoy this video!

[@JerseyJoel]

@robertdubon84 It absolutely was brother! I wish I could have got her onto the bank and got a weight the girth was massive!

Glad you had a nice vaca! And it figures you'd like a "fish-related" NFL team....bahaha

@robertdubon84 Thanks Haha! Yes I'm a fishhead 😄 👍 🎣

[@showmethefishing]

can you share your line setup? bait /weight/hook etc. dying to catch bass😅

[@JerseyJoel]

@showmethefishing I used 2 setups - a heavier rod with 40 lb braid that I use the wacky worm and weedless frog on and a medium lighter setup with 10 lb mono that I use the torpedo and mepps spinner and jerkbait on.

@@JerseyJoel thanks for the info. how about hook size and jig weight?

[@JerseyJoel]

@mattgoesfishing5236 Thanks Matt! It is absolutely heartbreaking losing a big fish like that but it does happen sometimes in the heat of the moment when your adrenaline is at full throttle! Next time! 💪 🐟 🎣
