+1 on the kings but truly loving steel, but I am not gonna lie- I love summer time, fish after fish after fish after fish of pink runs

Nah, I am good. Steel to me still rank as one of the hardest fighting fish out there, I caught a king that was 26 lbs on the scale that pales in comparison to the 17lb steel i got last March- both from the bank, on the same gear -.
