I agree it defintly sound like a bass that got your bober. I do belive Idaho has a 2 pole permit now available. So next time if you want to fish for trout as well as bluegills get the permit and bring a second pole. Set one up for trout, from the hook up your line put a small split shot sinker about 18 inches up. above that put a small egg sinker.This type of setup works well with power bait (dough type substace you mold over your hook) They also sell little bells with clamps on them that fit on the tip of your pole so while your fishing for bluegills with your other pole you can here if a fish bites the pole setup for trout. Trout fishing is usually a lot slower (not as many bites). Good luck and thanks for posting.
