It just seems like I'm always fishing in rocks or kelp or some sort of cover and a heavy stick comes in handy for yanking the fish out.
I have way more fun fishing lighter tackle..without question..heck a catch that still sticks out in my mind...I caught a 23# yellow on a roached out trout rod with 10# test...80 anglers on the Freelance that day at Catalina...pissed everyone off big time.
