Anywho i was out last night thats saturday night hummdruming along with the rest of the pack dreaming of the fish to beat all fish when i was suddenly stirred by the raptapataping on my little 6' ugly stick with 15 lb test, it started to jump around ? grabed the rod, pin popped i set the hook and felt a little tug figured it was about 10 maybe 15 lber . thinking oboy dinner ? Wrong again ! I dont fish with flashers there on the downrigger, so bigfish dont realize there hooked at first gives me a chance to clean up the rigs for the supposed big fight
