[QUOTE="poolie, post: 96629, member: 837"] Got skunked in the worst kinda of way for the tourney. Finally got some fishing time this morning on my parents small pond. Was pulling a trick worm around the dam area (I'm walking) and something slams my worm. I wrestled up a good solid 4 pounder to the edge of the water. The only problem is that the water is about 3 ft below where I'm standing and it's a straight drop off. Hmmm, of course walking I don't have a net with me so there's only one way I'm going to land her and that's just to grab a hand full of line and hoist her up. I'm spooled with 10# flouro so it should hold. Well about half way up as the line is cutting into my finger, she lets out one last flip flop and ker-splash, she shook the hook out of her mouth. Had I not had a camera and cell phone in my pocket I would have jumped in, not that it would have helped matters, but I'd have felt better. There's always next time. Poolie [/QUOTE]
