Smallmouth jumped into my boat when fighting it in

Funny video, didn't have to worry about landing him, Thanks for the post.

I had the same thing happen a week ago saturday. Hooked into a 2 lb. smb on a drop shot.it got air borne about 8ft. from the boat and landed on my back deck. I fish out of a Lund Fury 1650 so he had a little more height required to clear the gunnels. My fishing buddy was surprised when this fish landed right beside him on the back deck. That fish wasn't a game changer but he sure surprised both of us in the boat.

It did not land beside me. It attacked my ankle! Still have the teeth marks.

I am in therapy right now. Sure glad it wasn't a pike muskie or long nose gar.

OMG, now I'm going to be responsible for setting up a GoFundMe account to cover your Therapy sessions.
It just never seems to end.
Thank God it wasn't a Gar, they are very toothy critters and could do SERIOUS damage to an ankle or leg. Yes, They do get air borne often.

I've had them go under one side of the boat and jump behind me, I always get a kick out of it when they do that

Nice job Snover, that's a pretty cool video

You really ready for the results? Gonna knock your socks off. A full 5 fish limit....for 5.38 lbs. And we won.

How did the tournament work with weight and the fish being released?

Gentleman's agreement, it was just myself and TMG (another member here) and with it being so hot, we agreed to weigh and release on the water and tally results at the end.

cool video

They got to be 18" here its a pain throwing a 3lb smally back during a tourny

I set the hook in a night tourney and the line went slack. He jumped into the boat landing in the passenger seat. As I was headed back to grab him he flopped back into the water. I had to rush back and grab my rod as it was headed into the lake. 5 lb. 7 oz. Smallmouth Big fish in the club tourney that night.

Definitely suppose to be your fish.

That was cool.

A few years ago fishing next to a mud flat, there was a boat idling by. Turned around to talk to them and a 2# bass jumped in the back of their boat. They threw it back of course and we all laughed about it, but I always wondered what they would have done if we had not witnessed it.

I was watching one of the tourney retrials last weekend and someone had the dorsal fin spines broke off in his ankle and during the 2 min penalty (light bulb...MLF) he couldn’t dig them out!

And they say fishing isn’t a contact sport!

nice video! He was meant to have you catch him!
