Top Ramen Posted January 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2018 Rad fish! Thank you! Wasn't big but fought really well and pulled drag several times. Anytime in the video when I'm not reeling, that's because it was pulling drag. It was completely exhausted after that last little run when the net spooked it. Took a while to get it back to normal but it swam off vigorously. danthefisherman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewmoniz Posted January 2, 2018 Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Nice vid! Must be cool fishing these huge dams Top Ramen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Ramen Posted January 2, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2018 Nice vid! Must be cool fishing these huge dams It's frustrating. I know the big stripers are right up against it or up in the outlets and it's too far away to cast to. With braid, a trailing wind and a super-tuned reel, I can get a Punker just over half way there.
