    Dug down 8" to get a "screaming popcan" signal out of the way...but saw something ELSE with it :yikes:

    It was an absolute "screamer"...huge pinpoint area...and had an annoying "twang" to the hit. I was 99% SURE it was nothing but a stinkin' crushed soda can:cool:...and I wanted to remove it to see if it was masking any old coins.:smile: I CAN'T believe I didn't hammer it, scratch it, nick it...

    A pic of my biggest bass I ever caught.

    Seeing all of JW's bass pics prompted me to show my 9 1/2 lb largemouth I caught at a farm pond on a top water lure a few years back. It was an explosive hit to say the least. [attachment 172145 bass2.jpg]
