I had my best day ever this past Monday, and I know exactly how you feel. I had a couple of fish that pulled drag when I set the hook, and that always means a big fish. Glad to hear about your good day, good job and thanks for sharing.
Appreciate the response and the comments skeetbum. I usually leave my drag settings fairly light... yet firm enough to deal with the occasional
bass, jumbo white perch or catfish... so like you say... when the crappies pull drag you know when you hook 'em their going to be a good one.
I just hate I lost that one at the boat. I would have loved to have gotten the golden rule on it and at least took a better guess at the weight.
I keep saying... I can feel that three pounder coming this year... at first I thought that might have been it.
Good luck to you.
Some real beauties!
