Thanks for the comments guys.

No jumps, although the heart was racing a bit. I got her out of the weeds and to the boat.... I started to flip her in when she thrashed a bit and I saw how big it was..... thought oh boy.... bad idea. Wasn't using braid, had 25lb flouro..... so I stuck my mit in her mouth as fast as I could and got her aboard.....
