Congrats to you both........ caqtfish on light tackle is hard to beat. A couple of yrs ago I was fishin for bait B4 I could fish for cats....... light rod/reel combo w/4lbs test and a slip bobber #6 hook and a 1/4 of a dew worm. Ihooked a 14lbs ch cat....... what a blast. Because of the light line and current it took over 30min to bring in.
