Nice job on the over the side releases. I did that with a Steelhead Sat. and he took off like a rocket in to the prop. Thud. Makes me feel bad. I'm looking forward to Oak fishing and Yeungling Summer Wheats all next week! Nice report. -

Seaguar made it so I stopped losing fish from bite offs, As for 30lb Ande pink I use it and some of my reels haven't been re lined in 5 years. I just proofed them with 5 kings this weekend. My rods never see day light when not on the water. I do have 2 used reels with some green line on them that I like even better as it is more limber, knots tighten better and more elastic but don't know what it is! I use 50lb Ande between diver and flasher. 30 pink got broke a few times before I wised up!

I do like The Oak. I am planning to do a 9 day trip there last week of Jul. This trip was a bit grueling. Here's how it went. I decide to go at 1pm on Thurs. and throw the trip together in a few hours to leave at 6pm. The few people I asked couldn't/ can't do much on short notice.Drive 3 hrs, sleep in truck, up at 4, launch at 5, fish all day, go to camp, clean fish/drink beer/pitch tent/ cook supper/prepare camp for quick quiet tear down at 4am. Next day 4am wake up, slam coffee, collapse tent, vacate site, on the water at 5am/fish all day/ drive 3 hrs home. Now Freezer is broke at home, fish to clean, "they are gutted on ice" May have to run for a new freezer. I just fixed freezer. Broken wires.

11Jul went 5 for 9. All action 375- 440ft of water. Landed 3 Majors and dropped 2 though I got to fight the one almost to the boat. Landed 2 small steelhead. Bullfrog ProE with Atomik Ultraglow fly took 4 of the 5 screamer bites. Steels came on a FL spoon I just ordered and was recommended from some good ol Boys from Candor. It was ran on a 200 copper. 12 Jul went 5 for 7 . Action was 425- 555 ft. 4 majors on 2 landed. 3 steels landed. one steel 22in. NBK with a UV fly took 2 major hits, the other 2 Majors hit the bullfrog set up. The Majors were true Blue drag screamers. That's why I go! Lake was like a Pond, effortless solo fishing! Had fun sharing info with Kooter.
