Solid 5 pounder owned the fight for the first 20 seconds, in my defense I have really bad carpal tunnel in the hand I hold onto the rod, but I don't know how much that effected this, that fish was strong! https://youtu.be/0akLh9gsk1s

There have probably been many mean five pounders that have gotten the best of all of us. Wonder how many of those lost freight trains I never got to see that were really just a 5 with a bad attitude.

Man nice grab tho. And good thing you stuck him well, that fish had plenty of time to get off and stayed pinned.
I was cranking the dam on Lewisville 2 summers ago, kinda bored and not paying attention, something hit my DD22 and my rod shot out of my hands like it was connected to a submarine. It hit the water like a javelin and I never saw it again. I dunno what hit it but it wasn't a bass. My guess is a big yellow cat just because of the ferocity of the strike, and the weight. It was a REALLY heavy fish, or it felt like it was for the half a second I felt it. I was pissed at first but the more I thought about it the more impressed I was. Fish 1 me 0.

I've wondered this for years. My PB is 11.25 and it felt like I snagged a towel. Next cast I thought I was going to break the world record with how hard it was pulling. Not even 5 lbs lol
