I got to spend a couple of hours fishing last night. .................................................................
The bobber dropped, I set the hook, and pandemonium broke loose. About 75 yards of line screamed off the reel before I was able to turn what fought like about a 15 lbs CC. It swam back in 2/3 of the distance without stopping as I cranked furiously to recover the line. THEN the fight started.
I'm sold, george, and I will definitely be stocking more HSB in the future in one or both of my ponds!
CONGRATULATIONS Theo - they are a great sport fish .... now for the fly rod ....
