Thumbs up MONSTER LARGE MOUTH on OHL! (LANDED)

MONSTER LARGE MOUTH on OHL! (LANDED) This was her FIRST bass and FIRST day casting a rod all the moment caught on film!
This week I had the opportunity to go out on Old Hickory Lake with some great family friends of mine the Trottman family. Being the fact that we started late in the morning the sun was highest in the sky, the expectations were very low in terms of catching any fish. I was honestly out there just to spend an enjoyable time on the water with some great friends on a beautiful sunny day. Shortly after arriving out on the water, I found out that both of the Trottman kids both Amber and Timothy have yet to learn how to cast a rod. I took that as an opportunity and was eager to show them the steps. Being the fact that they're both intelligent kids it didn't take long for them to catch on, and minutes later Amber hooked up and landed what I consider a trophy bass on Old Hickory Lake weighing it at 4.20 pounds! Expressing my pationate excitement for her, It was nothing short of an exciting experience. These are the moments that make every slow day of fishing worth the catch that matters!
Watch this amazing experience on video below!

Thumbs up Really? Bahahaaa

Come on SalmonDays? Are you serious....? Lol...Not only an awesome fish for "youngster" but it was her first catch ever too! Instead of trying to "one up" a teenager with a season anglers small mouth bass in another state, rather I would like to see you attempt "one up" her with a picture of your first fish������. For most people that would be a brim or blue gill but for that young lady it ended up being a LARGE mouth that most seasoned anglers would consider that tournament fish, furthermore on oldhickorylake it would win biggest fish in most tournaments that I've seen weighed in around here.
No harm No foul if my post appears defensive SalmonDaze but your post below seemed that your trying to One up the young girls first catch ever!

No sorry you must be mistaking the background, this was filmed in Tennessee, not California.
