Angler Catches Largemouth Bass Using a Cigarette as Bait

In a surprising display of opportunistic fishing, an angler successfully reels in a largemouth bass using a lit cigarette as bait. The video shows the fisherman holding the cigarette, which is attached to a fishing line, before casting it into the water. After a brief period of reeling, a fish strikes the unconventional lure. The angler then pulls the bass from the water, showing the cigarette still lodged in the fish's mouth. The footage highlights the aggressive territorial nature of largemouth bass, which are known to strike at a wide variety of moving objects in their environment.

Medium size largemouth bass. Not really that unbelievable. You don't eat the big ones anyway so maybe turn it loose and try again.

How disappointing. I thought you'd catch smoked fish with this bait.
