It's ALL good and all a bit different!

The hit on a rigged eel is like non-other. But every hit is good. I think Frank Daignault said the hit or "take" is the best thing about fishing, or something like that.

:shocked:My fav, too.

For me it is eel's, you never know what you will have for size on the other end, subtle take 40lb fish, hard take 5 lb fish, next time it could be the other way around.

The one I still cant erase is casting 1 1/2 bucks off Newport into big surf. Water was so confused you could not see anything just before light, at my feet buck stops and fish dumps my VS 250 filled with 50lb PP, couldnt stop it.

i love trying a new spook...big as a telephone pole...working it on the surface...just about to be lulled to sleep or about to loose total confidence in the plug and start thinking about what plug to use next...big toilet bowl swirl...next cast...wham!!!!!!!

THAT SAME take happened to me at the avenues,

bout 45 mins into first last Aug ~~olive over white, Danny.
then she sounded for all she was worth as her tail went at
a 90 degree angle into the depths.............:bl: :bl: :bl:

YUP!! Stewie that was an impressive HIT. Still one of my all time
favorites on the Exhiliration Scale of Excellence. she absolutely
committed to that swimmer, and HAMMERED it rather nicely!!
