This is a photo of a guy I took to the Everglades last June. This bass was taken on No. 10 popper on a 3-weight.

NICE FISH! Bet he was a handfull on that 3 wt.

Yes, that fish was a handfull. We hooked one about 8-9 pounds the next time down. Had the fish on for a good 7-8 minutes before the hook pulled.

Again it was on a No. 10 popper.
