When I hooked this guy, I was using a  1/32 oz.silver shad jig (tyed by LedHed) tipped with a cricket, and as it was sinking down, the fish hit.  While fighting him with my tiny old Quantum Micro rod and 1 lb test ice line, the fish had bent the rod down into the water several times.  I did not have the apron put on my float tube, so a couple of times, the rod was pulled way down into the water!   I was so hoping it was a giant panfish!
