This is a 4.5lbs. 22.25 inch Largemouth Bass that I caught during 2004 spawn. I was using a Carolina rig with a watermelon seed(194) Yamamoto Hula Grub. A 7 foot heavy Falcon rod and 18lbs mono on an Abu Garcia 4600c provided the power to extract the 4.5 pounder from around the trees and rocks. A simple drag wait drag shake retrieve was used.
