13 Pound Striper - vegaskid - 06-27-2011
I went out on a solo mission to willow last week after work and was rewarded for my effort with this 13 pound beauty. This fish fought like a 20 pounder and was a real treat. She just had one hook in her lip and was a challenge to land. As usual, I let this one go so that someone else may enjoy her. [

Great job-like your conventional reel.
Hoping to get out Friday night if I can rig up the lights for the kayak. I bought a stern light and black light. Might try Hemingway by the tires. But would like to try Willow sometime soon.

Thanks guys. Yeah, that reel is an abu "record" It supposedly blew away the shimano calcutta among others and set the world record for casting distance. The record 60 like I have, has a high capacity spool for lotso flouro and a sick powerhandle for crankin in 70lbs of striper[cool]

Its a 8' offshore angler extreme jig stick from BPS. Its a heavy action rod with a sliding reel seat. Its an awesome rod which is discontinued. [frown]
