Every now and then I'm reminded that things are a bit different in Florida. Yesterday I hooked up on a largemouth and immediately heard a loud splash. This is what I caught.

Should have slapped a 14/0 hook in it attached to rope, tossed it back in, and gone for a DeSantisclaus Sleigh Ride!!!

Trust me that was a huge gator. It surfaced a bit later and came up like a submarine. I think he was looking for the other half.

I love Desantis!
