Some people just got luck on their side! Im surprised that fish didnt bust the drag. I got about another year and a half and I will be buying my daughter one of those rods. Cant wait!!
My daughters absolutely slaughter fish with those little pink poles! They've never failed to catch a fish with those poles no matter where we went...Cumberland lake, Dix River, Cedar Creek, Cumberland River and tons of ponds. In fact since they're so small and easy to carry I carry in the trunk of the car and the back of the jeep (but I bought Scooby Doo poles) for when I have an extra minute and I'm near water.
I went to a funeral visitation once in south central KY and on the way I passed a pond in some small community. On the way back through I pulled over and fished for 20 minutes in my suit and tie and caught several fish...all with a Scooby pole and a white rooster tail. You never know when you'll find yourself fishing!
That's typical huh? Blind luck wins again!:) That little girl might have thrown the rod if she had that Hoss hooked.
It just goes to show the big $$ rigs dosent always bring in the bigg uns. A friend of mine caught a wall hanger on a zebco 303 bought at Wal mart for $20.00. Go figure.
I've seen enough of my grandfather's pictures to know that expensive gear isn't necessary for big fish. Plenty of big cats, big bass, and big walleye on old Zebcos and Mitchells.
