fishingkidPA Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 My dad and i were smallmouth fishing today i caught 4 he had caught 2.my dad yells he got one on and we usually fish on light gear. But he had on 8lb test, i usually use 4. I was telling him to pull him up already you got 8lb test on theres no way hes breaking you off, and he said i cant! We could tell by the way he was fighting it was a catfish. 30 inches we both thought atleast 10 pounds. Well it was awesome watching him catch that and it made the trip! heres a pic! (we also did some rafting on the tubes, good way to cool off in 95 degree weather) Quote
bass or bass ? Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 That's great. 3 years ago I caught a 25 pound flathead cat while bass fishing with a Quantum baitcast rig spooled with 12 pound test. Took 20 minutes to boat it. Hey, I grew up in western Pennsylvania, lived in Pittsburgh too. Where were you fishing? Quote
