Super User deep Posted May 22, 2013 Super User Posted May 22, 2013 Hooked and landed a 7 lb 1 oz LM today. She ate a butch-brown rigged ROF12 hudd in about 30 feet of water off some rockpiles on a very sharp dropoff into a feeder creek channel. Typical post-spawn fish; long, skinny, beat-up; and probably older than most of the swimbait/ big fish I catch. Landed the fish, weighted her, and then discovered that I forgot my stringer AND my camera in my sedan. I don't usually carry the camera anyway, and travel light. Besides, the last thing I want to do when fish are biting (which is not often) is to waste time and get a good photo. Also left the phone in the car because there's no cellphone reception in most of the reservoirs I fish. Anyway, she wasn't very pretty. Gear: GGR medium swimbait rod. Cardiff 401A, Berkley Big Game 25#, ROF12 hudd in cutthroat trout (it's a special color). Quote
