[cool] Yeah, way fun! Earlier this year I was soaking a minnow on my whisker fish rod and tossing a spinner for whities on a short/light stick with 4# test. A nice 24" kitty whacked that spinner and then proceeded to kick my bootay around the pond for several minutes. It ran me into and around the bullrushes at least 3 or 4 times - what a wild ride! I was amazed that I was actually able to land it - but sure 'nuff. Sometimes it really pays to tie good knots and to keep your line fresh. Ya just never know. . . .
