Default Finally got broken off by Power Pro w/ palomar knot.

It was last Friday. I was fishing in my regular spot but on a sand bar..It had been slow so I started moving around. Aaron was drifting a shiner andI was throwing rubber baits. i had worked on my baitcaster the night before and had my drag totally tight.[:@]..When I cast on the point it felt something huge slam the bait and i pulled back hard. SNAP goes my 20 pound pro with palomar knot..first time this year. I was hopingI could see it. At 10:00 the fish were busting everywhere. I caught a 5 and aaron boated a 4 and a 2. I decided to try that fish one more time..Guess what? She bit. andI was ready .I had my drag set properly..she tore out again like a Mack truck. I had my rod raised and i saw what lookedto be like a 6 pounder jump up and came off. At least I know it wasn't a wall hanger.
