Well i once foul hooked probably an 800gram bass in the side in crystal clear water. At least 4 meter clear visibility. This meant it swam diagonally on its side struggling a lot. Not 5 seconds into my retrieve it was being attacked by at least 3 other bass of same and bigger size.

Yes a lure can be too big for any bass, but that doesn't stop them trying to munch it, seen this many a time Friday was no exception, saw a bass attacking a smaller bass that died and was floating on the surface more than 20 times, grabs it swims down with it and a couple of seconds later the dead one surfaces again only to be attacked by the same, slightly larger than the dead one, bass again and again and again, so the only time a lure will be too big for a bass is if the bass can't get it's jaws around the lure from any angle (they do try all angles).
How's this I landed a 3,46kg that was attacked by a smaller one around 2,6 kg's that resulted in the larger one receiving some serious injury to it's lower jaw, this happened right up against the bank in crystal clear water, and no I wasn't smoking @ the time.
only had a pack of smokes on me and none of that electric spinach which perhaps would get the blame for info like this.

Had the same experience with a small mouth bass. I had a 1.9kg small mouth on the line, while fighting the fish 2 smaller small mouth attacked it a few times. And They where half the size of the one on the line. I was not smoking like Popeye the sailor when this incident accrued either. I don’t smoke cigarettes as they are bad for you.
