MJL Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 Maybe next time I’ll pack a 36” rod in the tube.LOL Now I wanna see a 40lb Gerrard rainbow fit through that 8" hole
Jet Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) Thanks everyone for sitting through my long video The prehit fish finder action isn't as exciting with Bull Trout compared to the Laker chase - you just see a line for a split second and smash! I've never hooked something so big in such shallow water, so having it dart in circles all around the hole while pulling a good 30-40 feet of line was a totally new experience for me. great video ... gopro I assume ... what a place to be fishing !!!! Not a GoPro. I run a Panasonic TS2. I find the video quality is better and that's what I'm after. It's tough, however, trying to turn on the camera, hit record and set it for a proper viewing angle all while a fish is going bezerk! I've lost quite a few fish fumbling with the camera, but when I get clips like this it makes it all worthwhile. Vids do a lot more for me than pictures, especially when I watch them again after a year or two! Edited January 13, 2013 by Jet

BTW, I like the new avatar. I know that spot!
limeyangler Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 That there makes me want to call in sick to work! When you pulled that through the ice i shouted out...."HOLY". Great catch. (u got braid on that reel?)
Leecher Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 ....Great catch. (u got braid on that reel?) Looks like mono to me
Jet Posted January 13, 2013 Author Report Posted January 13, 2013 Looks like mono to me TJ knows his lines! Ya P-Line 8 lb. I like to run braid, but unless it's warm or I'm in the hut all day I stick with mono.

Yeah and you should re-spool that reel before your next time out after this abuse Edited January 13, 2013 by TroutJunkie
