I just got back. I got one on film. Not a winner but a respectable 3 pounder. I went flipping this morning. We are in the post spawn. I hit the spawn dead on a couple weekls ago and was in hawg heaven

Yeah ..I still need lessons on setting the hook when flipping. Some situations do not allow one to reel down and cross their eyes. SOme of my situations are me stretching out 7 ' from the boat and the water is only 2 feet deep. I'm talking about fishing through tree limbs.Then the fish runs sideways. My Stren braid is doing wonderful.No break offs this year.However..I've lost ALOT of nice fish from messing up on hook sets. Worse year ever.I'm using 20 pound test.It does turn white after a few outings so I then just cut that part off. I've missed alot of good fish this year. I did get 3 in the boat today.Biggest was 3 pounds.
God bless,
