I had a mate on a party boat try to snap 20lb Sufix Siege tied to a jig caught in a muscle bed. He tried like hell, it pulled drag multiple times before snapping. He was in disbelief.
I remember pulling a giant branch out of a stream with 4 lb test. It doesn't fail me.
Don, sufix siege is no joke.
I use nothing else.
Shohola should have been named Slowhola. 4 fish in 3+ hours. We did see a deer and then a bear cross the lake.
We saw heavy pressure by the time our batteries were near death. Nice lake though, one of our favorites.
Temps were 61 Prompton, 66 at Shohola for what it is worth.
I'd love to hold a record fish for even a day.
I have goals for myself, that one is just a lightning strike of luck on the back of many years of effort. That's what keeps us hoping.
Anyone ever try them? We found these at Ollie's of all places. They look deadly.
Reviews look great. Found a cool underwater view on how they work. I bought 6 and might go wipe them out lol
I was walking the stream by 5:45am. First fish of the day was a large Pickerel. After that I had 10+ Perch, 8+ Fallfish and finally landed some Smallies, 1st of the year. All in all, a productive few hours before most folks even wake up.
Heavy rains must have cooled the water, it was a grind. One Pickerel, one perch off at boat and this crappie. It was worth it to net that trout for Shiela.
I have the same story. They throw nice, spin nice and excellent drag. I think that gives them a slower speed fish like. The wires bend easy but dollar for dollar, my favorite spinner out there.
