I met a guy years back that was throwing a Rattletrap around the bomb circles and got a massive strike. Told his friend"This is no Bass". Said he saw a copper flash almost as long as his arm, it headed north and nothing he could do could even slow it down. Spooled him before they could get moving and popped the line. That had happened years before he told me and the excitement in his voice was still strong. I believe anything in the St. Johns system will have reds somewhere.
That said, I would have paid good money to watch you sort out all those rods. I bet it was a show.
