This is kinda scary....

The arrival


Fished an LC for about 20 minutes pulling salad on every cast. Then a huge Bendo and off went Moby Dick stripping off 15 lb braid like it was nothing. I tried going tighter and tighter but could not get it turned or even slowed down. This thing was a freight train! I continued to tighten the drag until I thought My new 8-6 Clarus might snap in two, then it snapped the braid and off it went with my LC. Never had a chance!

Switch to a Big Hammer that's been marinating in Crack juice for two weeks, first cast and bam! Nice little YFC


Cast it back out and bendo, long run again, this time I go a little easier on the drag but it snaps the braid again.

Tie another marinated Big Hammer on, cast, bam...a foul hooked SNGF


Then another SNGF, then a little Ray. This guy jumped clean out of the water!


A little while later I get another nice sized YFC.


Then another SNGF about the same size.

Last cast of the day came when another moby dick took off and I couldn't slow it down ending in another lost Big Hammer. Holy smokes batman!

Really fun day even after loosing my LC and two big hammers. I saw a big Leo swim right in front of me so I'm guessing that's what was breaking my braid.

Just did some research and it seems I need to use Double Palomar knots with braid. Maybe that's my problem on these big ones?

If I ever hit the lottery I will take you and your friend on a catching trip to beat all. Notice I did not say "fishing" as we always were cathing fish of many species or whatever. Believe me, it would be a supreme pleasure for me to do this. Cross your fingers, wish me luck and do anything that might make this happen.
