This beauty is the biggest fish I’ve caught since moving here. It was caught yesterday on Rainbow Turbo Power Bait (with my own glitter added), on 4 lb. test. I honestly don’t know what it weighed, but it is 19 ins. from tooth to tail. The other three are what I usually end up with.
Let’s eat!!!
Other than salmon, my favorite fresh water eating fish, Koyote. 🙂
I think it’s time to go catch some more.
Now that’s the American Spirit! Good job #1 and hope you got in some r&r.
Still ‘vacationing’ until Henry comes back, Katie. 🙂
That big one must have been a lot of fun with 4 lb test.
That’s all I ever fish with, Mark, at least from shore.
If I go out in a boat to deeper water, I’ll use 6 lb. test. I believe in giving the fish a fighting chance. As long as the drag is set properly, and the line isn’t compromised (no nicks), I can land any fish twice the test limit weight of the line.
Just have to wear ’em out. 🙂
Nice catch!!
More importantly, I’m glad you got out to do some fishing, Hatr.
I’m about 200 yards from the water, and I bought a new rod last summer that hasn’t even gotten wet yet.
Thanks, JR.
Making up for lost time… wasn’t able to even afford the license last year.
Keep ’em comin’. 😉 😀 😀 😀
