Caught this chunk on Tuesday on the deps 175. I thought forsure she was a DD but when I put her on the scale she went 9.9. Disappointing but I'm not complaining, I'm sure we'll meet again.
i fish it with 20 lb, anymore than that and you might dull the action. Good call on the floater i love mine. i tossed on a 1/0 gamakatsu 2x for a little extra weight so it sinks at about an rof 2-3.
