Hooks came out easy. Main 1/0 was right in the corner of her mouth, the trap had snagged her right behind her pectoral fin.

When I first saw the bass shape, I thought I had a small black, but then freaked out a little when I figured out it was a sandbass.

Thanks for all the positive comments guys. I am convinced that 90% of my best fish are dumb luck; I just feel lucky to have caught her.

I wish I had taken a few more pics for size reference. I have the tape shots but I wish I could have got a pic of me holding her just for my own sake. Either way, that was a great early Christmas present for me
