Kevin Beachy Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 So I went over to one of the farm ponds around here that has big fish! So, to go over the ones I caught, I caught 2 on a chatterbait, 2 on a chaterfrog, and two on a t-riged rage craw! Here is the bonus. I was using a papa pit boss, and and swimbait hook, and a 7'3 rod with a heavy duty reel and 30Lb braid, and my drag was locked down tight. I pitched to the bank, and was standing in a very awkward position, when a big on got on! I never saw it, but the reason I know it was big was because it was pulling drag, so it would have been a decent fish! Due to the fact that I didn't set the hook right, it go away then ~Kevin 1 Quote
