Big fish bite

How long after you catch a fish will it take for him to bite again. I have always been under the impression that the caught fish would not bite again for at least a day or two. Well yesterday we proved that wrong, my friend caught a nice 2lb3oz fish and we took pics of it and noticed that it had a funny looking mark on its tail. We put the fish back in the lake and in less than 10 seconds he hit again and we landed it. When taking it out of the net my friend said this is the same fish we just put back. Sure enough it was, it had the same mark on the tail and it had a hole in the mouth that I made when weighing it. I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it with my own eyes. We had a great morning of fishing landing 5 over two pounds. The best fish of the morning was 2lbs9ozs.


this is the fish that bit twice.

They just like getting their picture taken.

Man that's a pretty fish! Love those colors.

And again and again and again. There must be a law that will keep you off the water.

I recognize that fish....I caught him last week in Monroe!!!:Rofl

great picks

They know you are gonna let them swim again...I agree with Andy. They like the camera!!!!..Nice fish and pics, Vic...See you soon with some fishing tackle!!!

Out of our first 30 days here in Florida we only fished 22 of them. I start getting the shakes when I don't fish at least 5 days a week.

I think their lil brain is programmed pretty much like Andrew Zimmerman. If it looks good eat it!

22 out of 30...............slacker..............

If it was slimy and had scales it was the same fish I caught that day too!

j/k

I do think that's an amazing observation. Shows you how aggressive these fish really are. I also thought they would not bite again for a day. After all, it has to be somewhat of a traumatic event for them. Maybe not as traumatic as not eating though, huh!

Thanks for sharing.
