seems the big mama bass done staged up all under the dock prepping for the spawn is what I think , sure are ruining my crappie lunch break spot , :banghead
they be eating everything under the dock up , hardly any bites now and when they do it is often some kinda big mean fish and NOT a crappie !:banghead

Rough rough life for that one. Nice bass I'm sure was fun to catch.

I was fishing for Crappie about a week ago. Had already taken two very good ones when I hooked what later proved to be a 10.25" Crappie. For some reason he just stopped coming in. After a few seconds, line started peeling off my ultralight rig and eventually I worked a gigantic Largemouth to the surface that had just the tail of my Crappie sticking out of his/her throat. The bass wasn't really fighting, just didn't want to let go of the Crappie and I was able to get it almost to the boat, got my net in my left hand and was sliding the bass into the net when it finally coughed up the Crappie and dropped back into the depths. Geez Louise, the bass was EASILY an 11 or 12 pounder, easily. The Crappie went into the livewell, but although it was bruised up a bit, I suspect it would have survived being released.

well it's a fish eat fish world we live in! :crazy:

Everything loves to eat crappie

Bog ole green carp…

Brag have had that happen to bluegill I had hooked but never a crappie.

Outlaw don't you just hate it when those old green carp get in the way of your krappie ketchn.

That is one healthy bass right there, and really a bad day all around for that little fella. Wrong place and time - it wasn’t all that bad a size.
PS From the pan into the fire might apply:yikes

Just his time I guess!
My daddy always told me…..If you’re meant to hang, you’ll never drown.
