couple of bass on fly

[SC_flyguy]

I fished 2 places today one was a little farmpond that i was kicked off of after about 30 minutes.....Looked like a pretty good pond...saw one pretty large bass cruising maybe 4 pounds. The ones i caught were maybe 2 pounders. Then I took my jonboat out and headed to a small private lake and fished my Arse off and only landed one Bass a 2 pounds...The funny thing about this fish is it took a a pretty large saltwater baitfish pattern and gave me a decent little fight....I got it in the boat and took my fly out of its lip and noticed another a piece of mono and just the eye of a hook [size 1]protruding[/size] from it stomach...I took my hemostats and very gentle tried to remove the hook with out damaging the fish. After a little work i got most of the hook out.....Then i pulled gently and started seeing a green thing coming out of the stomach and was all pissed thinking it was some stomach lining or organ and i had pretty much killed the fish....Well to my [size 1]surprise[/size] it was a Zoom salamander with the hook and everything still attached. I put the bass back in the water and kinda nursed it back so it was getting water in the gills..then it darted away. So even though I only caught one fish...I probably saved it life!! Cause they is no way it could have made it much longer with a 2/0 hook in its gut and a plastic worm!
