Top Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 got out fishing today and landed 10! I had Gamma 12lb on my Curado 100... I hooked what WOULD have been my personal best had the line NOT BROKE AT THE SHORE! :'( That is the second time I had broke off on a 6+ pound fish in less than a week... so GAMMA is OUT!!! going to try something else... the guy I fish with swears by Stren so I will pick up a spool to see how it works for me... I know it works for him... I saw him winch a 6 pounder out today like it was a dink! here are some pictures, I am not sure how big they are, I lost my scale running for my car last week running to my car in a thunderstorm : also somehow my camera got put into black and white mode and I didn't figure it out till tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted February 18, 2007 Super User Share Posted February 18, 2007 Nice catch. Glad you got out and had some fun. Wheres the water at though ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User Gatorbassman Posted February 18, 2007 Super User Share Posted February 18, 2007 Stop catching those little males and wait a week or two for the big females to move on up. I predict that by the end of March you will have at least one over 9lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 Quote Nice catch. Glad you got out and had some fun. Wheres the water at though ? with all the training goin here all the ponds are closed so believe it or not... there is a prison "complex" about 20 miles to the west of the Installation and we went there... checked in got a pass and that gave us a "pass" to go to any of the 20 some ponds EXCEPT the Wardens pond hahaha... With the pace of my training in preparing for my deployment I am taking a chance to go fishing EVERY chance I can... I won't be fishing much in the desert AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super User roadwarrior Posted February 18, 2007 Super User Share Posted February 18, 2007 Have I ever mentioned Yo-Zuri Hybrid Ultra Soft? You might want to give it a try. I've been fishing #6 (11.9 lb test) on spinning tackle and #12 (19.5) on baitcasting gear. I have never been broken off by a fish using this line. Just a thought...
