Great fish, congrats!!!!!

X3 on the sharpie. I use Hi-Vis Yellow and always do this to the first 10' or so.

So I am guessing its worth the extra money? ;D ;D I normally use Sunline Shooter and have seriously been considering a couple spools of this to replace some of the Shooter.

Hope you guys had a good time, sure wish I could have made this. The guy that was planning on going with me, had some family issues and I didnt feel like making the trip alone.

I generally start out around 6ft for the leader. I tie on a new leader when I get around 3 to 4 feet left.

I use a fluorocarbon leader with bottom contact presentations. Not because of the visibility factor though. My local lake is very rocky bottom, so I use it for abrasion resistance. Normally connected with a back/back uni knot, but have been experimenting with the albright knot.

I have Navionics East Lakes maps. For $10 its definitely worth it, if there are lakes on it that you normally fish.

Very nice rods and awesome cork work. Is that Electric Blue Metallic on the DS rod?

Black Moshannon State Park is another not to far from where you are.

I voted cranks/jerkbaits. It was a hard choice over soft plastics as I always have a Jerkbait and a Tube tied on.

Very nice looking wrap!!!!

Thanks, Yeah I am kind of worried about that too. Always wanted to try the split seat, and after fishing it for a week on Erie, I am not sure I really like the split seat, atleast on a jerkbait rod. This might become my new Tube Rod.
