yeah, there were a couple of other guys in the same area as myself and the bullet and the popper were getting out way past where they were reaching. other than throwing a tin there was nothing else in my bag that would have gotten me out to where that fish was. last season i was questioning the usefulness of a sinking popper, but now i get it.

Plankton,

Nice job and congratulations on the fish. I picked one of those SS's a few months ago and they do work well. Hooks could be a little nicer, but they sure do fly and seem pretty rugged.

Also a nice job of having a conversation with the other-half.

thanks. i swapped out the hooks before i even fished it, vmc 4x treble and heavy duty split ring on the front and siwash on the back. i have no faith in those cut mustad trebles, take a pair of pliers and apply just a little tourque on them and it's shocking how easily they break.

Thumbs up

Nice mile stone Plankton37" was my first "biggest fish" then a week later I slamed a 49" @ 40#so when you break your best you'll never forget the first

enjoy the fall & best of luck out there

5/0

Live bait sharp hooks and timing is all you need
