It's Not a "Old Wife's Tale",,, I Swear It's True! SQUIRREL BASS !!
|
For years I've heard the camp fire tales about bass big enough to eat a squirrel. When I fished the river yesterday, I saw it with my own eyes.
I'm pitching a "jig and pig" around some fallen tember. All of a sudden behind me,,, it sounds like a gator and grizzly bear getten it on,, & sloshin in the lake.
When I turn around to see what was going on,, all I could see was a swirl of muddy water with some foam bubbles popping to the top.
I stood in the boat waiting for the two animals fighting to surface. NOTHING I start to pitch the jig back into the fallen tembers. Then I see a monster bass swim under my boat. In the bass's mouth I can see he has two walnuts. The bass swims to a stump about 2 inches out of the water.
He sticks his head out of the water and places the walnuts flat on that stump. Then backs off about a foot. I grab my camera just as another squirrel starts out across a log to the stump.
BLAMO ! the bass nails the squirrel just as he picks up the first walnut off that stump. The water turns muddy,,, and small bubbles swirl to the top of the now calming water.
If I hadn't have seen it with my own two eyes,, I would have sworn Squirrel Bass was just another urban legend. That's my story & I'm stickin to it.

Naaa, Man, it was a squirrel bass,, I looked it up in a book.
You know Mike Bedd?,,,, Helen's brother Helen bedd ,,,,, He has a book with all kinds of fish pictures in it.
It says the Squirrel bass can be I.D.ed easily It's the only fish know to man,,, to swim around in fresh water,, with wall nuts in it's mouth.
Sharks don't count. They are salt water fish,, I remember one time on spring break a shark nailed some dude who was trying to kick start his surf board.
Man Talk about a underwater fight,, The surfboard guy karate kicked the shark in the nose,,, The doctors tried to sew everything back on,,,, but it was a tie,, one to one. Shark got one,, surfboard dude got one.
Gotta go,, Helen Bedd is sending me a text memo.
