Last summer while idling in the back of a cut, about to get underway in the spillway, had about a 15lber smack me...tail part hit my right cheek and body/head hit my chest/rib cage....I thought my padnuh had sucker punched me as I was dazed for a few seconds...I was thinking, What did I do to you?, then I looked down and saw the beast flopping and bleeding on the floor of the boat....Knocked the wind out of me, couldn't draw a breath with all that air out there....Had a fist size bruise on my rib cage...If we would have been doing 60mph when that thing hit me, I would have been dead or in the ICU....Those things are bad news....
