We ran up on a rock pile searching out new spots and decided to give it a shot. After losing a big fish on a jerkbait I slowed down the retreive with a small jig my brother made and it got hit right off of the rocks and after some bulldogging and 1 wallow on top of the water it landed in the net. What a fish!
