I saw my line move to the side, and I set the hook. I was only using 8lb test so I couldn't control the fish too much. I just kept enough pressure to keep the hook in. Since I was fishing from the bank, I had to walk down the bank as the fish pulled sideways more and more. The fish swam into some grassy cover and wrapped itself around a tree, and when it swam back out the tree it was wrapped around actually broke. At this point my heart was pounding, and all I hoped for was that the fish stayed down and no jump. I ended up fighting the fish for a good 6 minutes until it wore itself out, and i reached down a lipped the biggest fish of my life. I let out a yell that could be heard for miles!!
