Live lining sunfish for monster bass

[Td0g900]

This summer my friend and I got permision to fish a private pond loaded with big bass. We fished with lures the most of the summer and we caught nice fish in the 4-6 pound range everyday. But we couldnt catch the bigger bass in consistant numbers. So one day we noticed at the dock on the pond when were catching some sunfish the bass would nail them as we hooked them but we couldnt get them to stay on without an extra hook on the sunfish. So then i caught a small sunfish and hooked him through the back and tossed him out. As soonas he hit the water a 6 pounder inhaled him. So from that point on we fished sunfish and caught many big bass
