An Oldie But a Goodie – Fishing With Rick

Rick let me fish a Desert Bass tournament with him out of his boat one day. He had picked up a couple on dropshot I think, and he was ready to leave the area to find fresh water.
I said, “Wait a minute so I can catch that seven pounder back there.” I was just making noise, but I lobbed a frog way back in the trash next to some cat tails, made one rod shake and this bad girl sucked it under.
Rick asked me if I saw that fish. Nope. It was way back there and I just wanted to make a cast back there. I think it was the only keeper I caught that day. Rick filled the rest of our limit.
