So years ago I use to fish the Great Island Bridge in Dec for the Shad. Quarter OZ gold Kastmaster and we would crush them. One night I had a Shad on and it got eaten by a Bass of huge proportions. Now I'm fishing a little 5' graphite rod with a Penn 4400.. 10 minutes and I did get the fish up to the rocks but it was just too big to handle and I couldn't get down to when it was to grab it. IT WAS IN THE 30# range.
Later that night I met a guy who had the back of his truck fitted with 2 large live wells. He was catching Shad and going up to the short wall at Georges and livelining them. He said he hooked and lost monsters every year. This was probably 2 weeks before Xmas.
