that happened to me last year but we only had a 9.9 as a back up 13 miles out.

Beautiful fish.

Thanks

started out in 25 ft, of water tonight fishing for browns just south of the power plant at 530pm, water was stained up a little and water temp was about 58 degrees, we trolled and before we could finish setting up the rods we had our first hit, it was a beautiful 5lb smallmouth which my 8 year old son had a blast reeling in. 2 hours of trolling after that in complete frustration my one downrigger hit bottom, I brought it up and when I went to reset the fuse was blown, after all the trolling and only one hit I conceded failure and let the line out 135ft, with a spoon. trolled another hour or so watched an amazing sunset and started trolling for home. just as I was talking to my 2 sons about packing it in, the rod I free lined a spoon on got the most amazing hit!!! line peeling off, we were in 25ft, of water, it must be a huge brown!! after 20 minutes of fighting this fish on 8 lb test to our amazement it was a 25lb king!!! has anyone ever heard of a king caught in 25 ft, of water flat lined!! to this very second I still cant believe it actually happened. needless to say it really made our day!!!
