fished the deal out of cfp and really struggled. started on the edge of a grass flat, caught one on a buzz and then one more keeper and several shorts on topwater as they were coming up schooling, those quit and i went shallow to see if that was the deal. caught another keeper on a frog but went back out deep. fished several more places and looked at some others, finally caught a decent fish(3.75lbs). went and pitched around some shallow cover but got nothing. went back out deep trying to catch a big one but no love, with 5 mins to go i pulled up to pitch some shallow cover, pitched a bait out, took a knee to piss before going to the dock.....you guessed it, stood up and felt the fish, set the hook and the line cut like it was across or over something. i waited a moment to see if the fish would come up to try and shake it but nope. ended up with 3 for 7&#43;lbs....smh took 11&#43; to win.<br />
