Hey! Decided today was the day to try out my new Kong Swimbait. Been storing it all year for Fall. Lost one little dude, then had two different hits from some 4-5lb class smallmouth. They were like bashing into it, but not biting it. What the heck? Had one follow it to within 4 ft from the boat. Tried twitching it, jerking it, stopping it...nothing. Finally got this LM . The Kong is about 8" and the fish was 12". What a bold species we hunt. Proportionally, that would be like me stocking a teenager and trying to eat him...Crazy!
