The nature of their feeding causes them them to engulf your fly. They suck in a plume of water and the prey with it. In this case your fly. Set the hook fast enough and maybe you'll stick it between a mouth bone aka lips.

Here's a "duh" article regarding handling bass, along with a question. I've recently started targeting bass and have experienced that, much like panfish, bass will often inhale my flies. I've never had much difficulty getting a fly out of a trout's lip, be it a large wooly bugger or a tiny nymph. Any thoughts on ways to either present or retrieve bass flies that will prevent me from having to jamb my hemos halfway down their throat to free the fly? Anyways, here's the article along with a source article from bassmaster:--
