4 weeks in the drink
 
A customer casted this Quantum rod-reel in the drink over a month ago. I was waiting for the water to warm before I went hunting for it. Found it last week and gave it a bath in warm water. Got this 42" Striper on a live Eel on the first time I tested it. Quantum wants it back to inspect it but I think its OK an will hold off till the end of the season. Its a 12lb test rig.

Unbelievable that you found it a month later. Awesome Bass too! WTG.

I am impressed by your ability to hold the rod in your teeth as you hold up the fish.

The Cabo PT 40... it's awsome... great drag system. The person I was fishing could not believe I landed that fish on it. I just ordered 3 of the 60's ( Bigger Frame)
