When the ladyfish get thick it's fun to catch them with ultralight tackle. That's how I learned to use 6lb test, then I started catching snook with it. Bent the shaft in my old Penn 430SS fighting a cobia on 6lb too. All because of ladyfish on a spoon one afternoon with a buddy that had an ultralight. I tried his and bought one a few days later. And I still rather use the light stuff. Ugly Stik has a 7' ultralight tod now that would cast far enough for the beach. I can't wait to take mine to the saltwater. Nice action, cool video. You're almost to 100k and you deserve it!

My first bluefish weighed 18#. In Long Island Sound on the CT side. We were trolling the beach. I was 9 or 10 and I had a hard time bringing that fish in. My dad said he’d cut the line if I couldn’t bring it in the boat. When we weighed it he said “son you will never ever catch one this big again in your life”. He was right. We released that fish and just sat there quietly drifting and my dad was making me laugh at how wimpy I was bringing that in. But that was a TOUGH fight.

Couple questions, for BBB (or anyone). 1) Referring specifically to braid, do you really place much emphasis on braid color vs. water conditions, and.... 2) What do you use to wash fish blood out of your nice fishing shirts?? Spanish and Ladyfish thrash like crazy out of water, and throw blood all over the place! By the time I get home, its well stained in there.
@jackfish27062 жыл бұрын
