As I have told most of you before the very first fish I caught was a large mouth bass. I was using my brother in laws 5wt and fishing from the shore (his back yard) of a small golf course lake. I was using about a 1 inch green/over yellow popper near a small willow tree that leaned over the water. As I watched the popper floating and reacting to the small waves of the water I notice a small "wave" of water coming toward the popper. Tthe next thing I knew my popper disappeared and my line was being tugged hard. I lifted the rod and brought in a decent sized LMB. I was so excited I tried to do about six things at once but luckily one of them was to get my nephew to take a picture of me and that fish before I released it... and yes.. I have been hooked since..
