someones gotta do it

Not sure if anyone frequents these forums much anymore. Spent my late ternage years annoying people and trading baits on here instead of fishing. A lot of mistakes, and a lot of advice later i finally got a good one completely by myself. As im sure some of you know netting/ gripping big fish can be a make it or break it moment when you are solo. Shout out to the OGs who pointed me in the right direction She ate the glide, 24lbs on the knock off boga grips

Thanks everyone. after a full 24 hours after catching this fish ive decided that work and school are now irrelevant and catching good fish is more addictive than cociane. Hopefully i can scratch that itch again soon.

Been trying to figure out the striper bite since i moved here. Some luck over the years but nothing really bigger than the 10lb schoolies. This year I had aztrouteater let me borrow his boat and goodies and told me "Quit being a "Not Allowed", and go catch a 20". Started getting into some smaller fish here and there to build my confidence and i got a good one last night. I know theres a lot of people who are sticking bigger fish more often but this was a big deal for me. I remember being 16 and thinking about how im going to own a deps 250 one day. Then here i am on a boat, with a nice setup, and a 250 just getting after it. Unreal. Didnt have a scale but she measured 36 in Leviathan XXH rod, Okuma komodo 400, keta bass deps 250 Sorry for the cheesy video, i was so pumped Thanks to all that have helped, you know who you are. 20201023_192739_1.mp4
