BFZimm7 Posted August 13, 2023 Report Share Posted August 13, 2023 On a family vacation in New Hampshire. Headed out in the yak on dawn patrol this morning before the family got up. Fishing a TK for the first time, lip out tail up (mode A?). Also first time for the new setup I pieced together from members here, Triza Dragoon @mbleming and Tatula 300. The Triza and 300 are phenomenal (even if the 300 May be overkill for the TK). I bombed the TK out along a deep weed edge. A couple quick handle turns and then two rod twitched and this gal smashes the TK clear out of the water. Safe to say, I nearly soiled myself. The rod and reel performed flawlessly even though I was a basket case. She made a run into the weeds before I landed her in the net with a face full of salad and Tk. I fished for a couple more hours, playing with the different modes but no other fish wanted to play. She’s not a monster but it was an absolute blast.
