@jordanscollected those are excellent cooked in a smoker stuffed with crab meat. Those are nice sized fish.

Thanks guys! I’m taking my nephew on Tuesday to Waconia again. Hopefully more pics to come.

@Filthy all catch and release today, but that walleye would have been great as you suggested.

Get castin!!!!

Caught a boatload today. A big storm rolled through and the topwater action was poppin. 40 bass, 6 northern and 2 pumpkin seeds in 5 hours. We took cover from the storm for a bit under a rich guys boat slip.

I'm so envious Giles. That looks amazing. I hope it stays on course for you.

Dont be.  I've probably done 150 hours Bass fishing (Sea Bass) so far this year, and have had 2 fish  :o

I grabbed a picture from their page and hope to see you holding a similar catch.

Fingers crossed for you!

If I come to Gosport, I'll leave my rods here.

That's actually quite small for Morocco…..The rod I had bought for the trip is a "Big Tuna 73 - Japan Special", it will cope with BFT to 200kgs....Now, of course, I won't be able to, but that's not really the point 

[goosehd]

On a rig like that, do you use braided or steel line?

[Giles]

PE10 Braid.  About 120lbs BS.

Steel is a no-go, we are casting poppers to the fish at distance (not trolling lures), need the flexibility of braid.  Not even sure if you can cast a steel line from a fixed spool….

[goosehd]

I just assumed they would be at trolling depths (50-100 feet), or jigging.  Top water would be insane fun!  Especially using poppers.

Other that shore fishing, I’ve never fished ocean.

Moha is my man…..

I'm assuming you'll be running the Daiwa Saltiga 20000H with that rod?  66 lbs of drag is no joke!!

[Giles]

Yep, exactly.

As I said to a mate this morning, This will be my setup…..

Big Tuna 73 - Japan Special
Saltiga 20000H
PE10
Ibuprofen

[goosehd]

I like how you slid the Ibuprofen into your list…
