Until We Meet Again... Bet that's a thought many of us have when we ease them back into the water for a sweet release

During a recent Spring evening, the winds came to a HALT after blowing 30mph all day and I knew that the deeper offshore bite would be my "Day Maker" I had been alternating between the Jig n Lobster and a C rigged Eeliminator easing them over ledges falling into the river channel. Bait balls were averaging 17ft depth and this was also where the best bites had been throughout the day, so I stayed with it for the FINALE

On my last spot, I tossed the Eeliminator on top of the ledge and slowly eased it toward the drop... She bit when it made the first step drop and we played "Stretch the Line" in deep open water, my favorite way to work the bigger ones  

7'11" Hvy action St.Croix RAGE Rod, 25# Vicious Pro Elite Fluoro for both main line and leader, 5/0 Moaner Stick'r hook, 3/4oz black Brass C rig weight.
