Awesome lunch break.

I think some one had a very similar story to this awhile back.

I went out fishing for lunch today..using a white ,finesse chatterbait I hit two decent fish in my ''good spot'' (also first chatterbait fish

)
Well about 10 minutes before I had to pack up and come back here...a school bus pulls up with a class of 10yr olds and three guardians...They set up their picnic area behind me....I turn around to 20 kids staring at me from 15 feet away...haha.
I thought about how cool it would be to lug up a fish right then...about 5 minutes past and sure enough..The line goes tight...The same 1.4lber that I caught eariler wanting to say ''hi'' again...It was pretty awesome having kids cheering you on while fighting a fish....I walked the fish up to them and did a little seminar on northern largemouth.....It was a pretty awesome little experience..

I had to explain to one kid that it wasnt a bluegill.

I snapped a quick pic of the fish I caught twice today...He had a little dorsal fin damage that made him recognizable.

Thats pretty cool. Who knows how many minds you might have inspired?

Haha! Sounds pretty cool, nice fun day! I've done something similar at a park pond I fish at!

Cool wish I had a lunch spot but not too many ponds here in Vegas.

That sounds like a great lunch break! And good job talking to the kids about the fish, hopefully they will get interested in fishing.

Spider, do you think you can talk them into stalking the pool in front of Bellagio? Might get a little wet fishing out there though.

I heard they keep it stocked with dreams and hooker spit.

How cool would it be though, to snag a 5 lb bass and then have the water show start
