Ya just sneak up on the bass, jump out of the boat, pounce on the biggie fishy, wrascle/wruscle/wrescle/fight them to the bottom of the lake without drowning, swim back up to the surface and hope the boat hasn't drifted off a half mile in the wind, try to climb back into the boat with the fishie in your arms, after a few tries you let go of the fish, climb into the boat and hope the fishy hasn't swum away, lean over the gunnel, grab the fish without falling out of the boat, jump up and down when you're successfull and hope you don't lose your balance and fall out of the boat, take a picture because nobody will believe you did all that for a 1 1/2 pound Bass.

Sight fishing bass a few years ago I did go swimming after a monster. Heavy braid was tangled up in heavy cover had the fish snubbed to a limb. Wasn't able to bring the fish up with me however:-"

I THINK I remember someone saying they were out for good. ...guess good is not forever.Top water is vision bite only...no skill to catch just like sight fishing.I like fishing off shore one foot deep canals or structure that I have worked for instead of blind casting and hoping for luck.
Sweet...a bass fishing snob. Glad to hear you're too good for topwater though, more for the rest of us.
