Killer bass caught in small Tamarac canal

My daughter had been catching little bluegills with an ultralight setup, tiny hook and a little piece of squid. At sundown, she said "I'm done" and handed me the rod to go inside. This was about 20 feet in back of my sister-in-law's house in Tamarac. I reeled in the bait, and right next to the bank it seemed that it had caught another small bluegill. Then the pole bent over, bobber disappeared and the fight was on. About 15 minutes later I beached the largest bass I've ever seen. My daughter took the pic for me, and hopefully it makes it up to this posting. I don't know how much the bass weighed, but for comparison I'm over 6 feet and 350 lbs. Now that I knew what to fish for I caught 3 more like this one before they took my favorite bass lure, a gen-u-ine handmade guaranteed Tennessee bass lure....
