Had to get back out there this morning. After going out yesterday without my scale, and hooking into what I thought was my 4lb goal… I had to go back and try to vindicate myself. Scale in tow this time.
Changed up to a bigger 5” hula grub, casted out deep, and slow rolled it back in….. then BAM! I set the hook and could feel the weight immediately. Almost felt like a snag until the head shaking started. I knew this was it. Great 40 yard fight in with drag singing.
I FINALLY DID IT!!!!! 4lbs 13ounces!!!!! Whoohoo! The big payoff I’ve been looking for. Thank god.
I did a little dance…. Calmed down… and decided to throw one more cast before committing myself to my cubical for the day.
I’m glad I did, because I snagged another one at 3.2lbs.
Best day fishing I’ve ever had! Now I gotta spend some time on the home lake (Sammamish) before Fishingfool puts me to shame.
I have a video of the releasing the big one I will try to upload today. My apolgies for the "mug shot", Logan Little taught me how to smile.
Tight lines!
