5 gallon bucket?

That's just plain mean.

I just drop them back with nothing attached and keep the speed up around 7/8 knts - packs on really tight.

20 minutes of pain per reel but a season of pleasure. It is so tight if you hit it; the line sounds like a block of wood. A fun way to kill a day and a friends arm.

Actually I think the bucket is 4 gallons it is a mayonaiise bucket from a restaurant. You would not get it in if the boat was moving.



Make America Great Again.
