Team Effort Landed Trophy Bass

Type: Nontidal
Region: Central
Location: Montgomery County Farm Pond

Here is a picture of a trophy bass I caught with my son, Ryan (7) this past weekend. We are both from Gaithersburg, MD and were fishing a farm pond in Montgomery County, MD together. Ryan saw the bobber shoot under and we both raced for the rod. Ryan wanted to reel it in on his own and managed to get the bass close enough for me to land. We were both so excited, high fives the rest of the night. He earned his milkshake on the way home. The bass was estimated at 23 inches, over 6 pounds. The fish was safely released.
