Personal best from shore
 

(with apologies to Narragansett Surfcasters who have already seen the pics!)

Saturday night on a Hogy (first time using, since the previously hooked fish had spat out and demolished my last sluggo in the bag!!), perched on a rock on the South Shore, RI.

26 lb, 41" length, 21" girth

Absolutely stoked. :bl:

BTW, the Star rod was a beaut - cheers, Steve!!!!

Awesome job. I have been meaning to grab a few hogy's. How do you work them, same as a weighted sluggo?

congrats

congrats man!!!

Thats a nice fish!!

excellent fish

Excellent!

My pb is also 26#.

That is great Jos, you must be so excited...finally! It is my turn now. :0)

Way to go.

Cheers, guys.

Still not able to get the smile off my face, Tuesday notwithstanding (thus far - Tuesdays are usually a bear for me!).


While I would certainly defer to those that have used them extensively (this was the first time I put one on the leader), I had completely forgotten what the guy from Hogy had advised, so carried on using it the way I had been using the sluggo before it - medium/medium-fast retrieve while twitching the rod up and down. It didn't cast as far as the weighted sluggo (as expected), but I had the wind to my back so it wasn't too bad..........and seemed to do the trick!! :btu:

Your Smile says it all, Congrats nice fish

Nice Job. That is a very nice looking bass.

I don't remember a time on this site when we had so many back to back members setting new PB's. Either we're getting better or the Fall Run is on. Probably both!

Nice!! Yeah, I love Star rods too, they have been great for me this year.:)

Nice Feesh:claps:

Nice fish!

a do believe that it's about time. all the effort involved on your part, and the learning curve finally paid off. keep up the good work.

Solid!

Sir Winston-- Way to go mate!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well Done!

Jolly good show

:hihi: :btu:
