Last cast, big fish

I'm waiting for the pictures, but this story is too cool. I'll add the picture later. On Thursday the fishing action was scattered with a few small peacock and largemouth being taken from all around the lake. Most in the 1 to 2 pound size. (on Friday everything broke loose with 1 to 3 pound peacock bass schooling and taking almost any thing tossed at them)
(The only real excitement came about an hour before quitting time when Chris, who was sitting on a small cooler on the bow of the boat, kind of missed when he sat down and went over backwards into the lake.)
Cell phone and all.
Around 4:00 PM he announced "Last Cast", time to go home. The angler and his wife both cast out their lines and..... Wham. She hooks into a 2 1/2 pound largemouth and he had a 6 1/2 pound peacock bass grab his little surface popper.
I'm surprised you didn't hear them yelling. After pictures and congratulations all around they headed in. What a great way to end a day of fishing.
Aloha,
Stan
