accidental bass

[medic3]

so i took my two girls 4 and 5 fishing at a local pond with a can of worms we dug, caught two small sunfish that we put in a bucket to take home to put in a small pond in the yard, when the 4 yr old hooks a sunfish and just before she pulls it onto the beach a 6lb largemouth inhales it and swims off.....i wish i had a camera, with a bit of help she landed one of the biggest largemouth i've caught....we let it go after a quick debate about the size of the pond and the resident goldfish.....

That's great! Little kids love big fish. I'm sure she's still talking about it.
