Abstract:

North Carolina angler Jim Dean tells a story about one of his bass fishing experiences at a small lake near Raleigh. He hooked a largemouth bass near a sunken brush pile and fallen tree, but soon realized the fish was wrapped up in the tree limbs. Jim’s fishing buddy dove fourteen feet into the lake to free the bass.
