Seeing Reds again........

[Ice Cream Man]

First Red on bait......
Second Red on bait.......
Third Red on bait.......
Fourth fish on bait turns out to be a 5# Blue.....
Switch to topwater - first four cast.......
4 more Reds....
Bend down the barbs, topwater taking a beating, hooks are giving out, bend them back into shape......
4 more cast ........4 more Reds......Total of 11 Reds
Would have caught more if I had any hooks left on that topwater......

Switch to Hopkins with a single hook first cast .........
Big blow up......., but this time it's the PowerPro blow up, lose the lure, leader......

All Reds released except for the Blue.........ICM

Yikes, that's some serious bite!

[Ice Cream Man]

Took a friend that had never caught a Red....The Man is hooked & will be spending a fortune on tackle in the next day or two........ICM

LOL. Yup, the tackle shops love those kinds of days.
