Big Time on Bait

On today's fishing excursion, I was catching on a san juan worm I tied up then the kids started chumming heavily. Everything came out of the woodworks - the turtles, big sunfish, bass and a bass. At the encouragement of Marlon, I switched to using a hook and bait setting the line down deep (that's the tactic he's been using). I hooked up with this big pig!!! It bent the Ito rod and made it sing (tension in the line and the rod sections getting fully seated) - what a sensation!!! And best of all, I almost don't have a guilt streak from using bait on my tenkara rod!!!
