Tribs were tough today. The fish disappeared. Saw 3, caught one, a 28” hen for the smoker.
Holy smokes man you must be tired
12lb line will pretty much catch any nontoothy critter (and some toothy critters) you’ll run into. That’s all I’ve ever really used….Had a few hours to kill this morning before school stuff this afternoon. Tried all new water (which is impressive for me lol) that was within 10 minutes of home. River was dirtier than I’d like, but a handful of decent largemouth cooperated. Only truly note worthy fish was a 35” 25.65lb flathead I caught on a 2.5 square bill on 12# mono. Fuggar kicked my ass. Pics suck, didn’t think he was gonna fit in my net View attachment 208448View attachment 208449
10-12 mono and fluoro is my standard for most rigs and it seems to work well, just gotta cut a foot or two off occasionally dragging shit through the rocks (I don’t, I just break fish off instead12lb line will pretty much catch any nontoothy critter (and some toothy critters) you’ll run into.
