(I had lost two arrows to line breakage)
On a serious note, why are you loosinig arrows? That is not normal, or at least shouldn't be. If you aren't using fast flight, switch to it.

There is a reason you guys only shot 17 lbers...you don't think I would let my spot with the 30's and 40's become a community spot do you?
Line breakage was because of a couple of sharp edges on the side of the boat and railing. Those guys love to head for the basement and somehow always manage to go under the boat, dragging my line along the side. [:@]

30's and 40's nah....I'm lookin' for mr 50+

Is that a bighead? Looks kinda' like a silver, but they usually don't get that big.

Robin, Nice fish. Looks like you hit it in the rear. I bet that was some fight. Usually when you wack them back there you are in for the long haul. Nice going.
