High 30's.....maybe 40 pounds from what I could see.....then you turned with a thrash.....and......"SNAP"!!!!! That whiplash snapping sound mono makes when it breaks under stress.......you were free! Fish 1 - Fisherman zero! Till we meet again my worthy opponent......till we meet again!

Oh.....if anyone finds a 3 oz. Perch pattern pencil popper attached to a nice striper.....keep the plug.....I just want the fish back!
You remember me asking if you had caught anything on a perch pattern last week? Do you? I was fishing with the two oz. pencil, and nothing, but I had grteat expectations for it when fish were around. Going tonight myself.
