Caught this guy on Sunday
Catch and Grease reply :
Wow that's cool! I saw a baby duck get hit and spit back out in a video once, I think it was the Bigmouth video...
Bassguytom reply :
That looks just like my live target mouse. Other then the tiny human hand that's in there also. I have never caught a bass that had a live mouse in her but have caught lots on my topwater mouse. Thanks for posting that.
Smokinal reply :
Ya it was pretty cool. I would say the mouse had been swallowed and was half regurgitated during the fight because it looked partially digested.

More the reason to stock up on mouse lures!

Sweet pic and a heck of a surprise!

When I was 5 or 6 I caught a 3 pound largemouth in my grandparents pond. This was when fish were for food for my family, not for fun. My grandma, who is deathly afraid of mice, was filleting this bass and it turns out he had a recently eaten field mouse in his stomach. I don't remember my grandma cleaning any more fish after that.

Yes. It was in one of Uncle Homers videos.
Bass are predators and will hit at anything to determine if it is food.
This is why we use scent to try to have the bass retain our bait in their mouths a few seconds longer so we can have a better chance of setting the hook.

What kind of scent do you use, Sam? I've considered buying some, but can't shake the feeling I'm getting bamboozled. I'd give some a shot on your recommendation.
Smokinal reply :
^^^I like Megastrike. Not as an attractant, but as Sam said, to help make them hold the bait that split second longer to get a hookset.

I use JJ's magic, but like mentioned above I don't think it "attracts" bass but I do believe it makes them think its real longer after biting, I use it mainly for the colors.
rippin-lips reply :
Megastrike for scent and JJ'for adding color to your soft plastics. Or some of the others like spike it,dip and glo if you can't find JJ's.

That is really cool. I saw a bass eat a swallow the other day. Then I caught the bass a 4-12 on a frog. It spit up the bird.

Ratherbfishing reply :
This is cool (not for the mouse) but i doubt bass specifically target mice. A buddy and I fish white Moss Mouse's (mice?) over slop all the time and while we catch fish, it's questionable if the fish know (or care) whether they are mice or just SOMETHING which is edible. I do sometimes jokingly suggest that my moss mouse which still has all its whiskers catches more fish than it's whiskerless cousin.

Twice in my life we've caught mice live in regular snap traps. Let them go in the lake at the dock and both got eaten almost immediately after swimming around for about 4 seconds. One was by a big pike and the other was a big smallmouth.

It's not that they're specifically targeting anything, it's that no predator will pass up a meal of red meat when presented with it.

We have a city park lake that the bass stalk the baby ducks. There are only a few places where they can get out onto some rocks, when they enter the water they are picked off. See a boil, hear the baby duck and then a splash and one less baby duckling. Come back an hr later and facing the rocks along the shore you will see 6-8lb bass waiting for another chance for a meal. Within 2 days 12 ducklings reduced to 0.

Great Photo!
Ironically, I've caught 2 bass this year with Field Mice in their gullet.
I've been bass fishing for over 40 years and it's the first time I've actually seen the mouse down in there.
Cool Huh?
