Finally had a chance to try out the Strike King Anaconda & it delivered!  I caught only 2 bass this morning & this was the better of the 2.

I didn't have a scale on me but I'm guessing this bass is around 2 1/2-3 lbs.  Thought I hit a rock but realized on the second thump it was a bass.  I set the hook & the bass headed for the surface & did a real nice jump for me to see how big it was.  It pulled some line too!

I also finally had a chance to try out my new Daiwa Zillion rod I bought in December w/ a 7.1:1 Zillion b/c reel(bought that last year).  Had the Zillion reel needed the 6'9" MH Zillion rod to compliment it.  The Zillion setup w/ 30 lb PP braid & flouro leader worked like a charm.  The Zillion 6'9" MH rod is more of a stiff than a MH.  That's okay cuz this will be my jig/worm rod w/ occasional 5" hard jointed swimbaits.

Back to the SK Anaconda, I was intrigued w/ this worm when it first came out.  It does have alot of action, but not sure if paying $6 for a pack compatred to Culprits is worth it.  Sure do like to try new things & see how they work though!

Congrats, Nice Bass and a Helluva Set up

nice bass... and sweet setup

I have the exact same rig, even LH retrieve reel.

The Zillion combo just feels so sweet when out on the water, doesn't it?

Congrats on the anaconda bass, oh yeah that is a sweet setup you got there.
