Can't thank you all enough for all the tips mentioned here. The very first fish I hooked I landed. The FIRST crankbait fish I have ever landed!!!!

Here's what I learned:

Swapped my rod out.

Kept my floro.

Removed my snap swivel and attached a regular snap (50# I think?)

Increased my treble by 1 size.

Set my drag properly.

Easy set of hook.

Work the fish easy but firm.

PUT HER IN THE BOAT!!!!

Do an Iaconelli celebration! (never done that before, I was excited!)

THANK YOU ALL AGAIN!!!!!!!
