Ponto/Leucadia 8/10 - YT

Congrats Surfisher, nice fish. Look like you're still slaying them. My luck has slowed down last few weeks. I think I need to just go out more than once a week.

Fish11 .... My luck went WAY south since the last time I caught a YT (I killed that one a few weeks ago on my skiff). Since then I have only caught rats to probably 10lbs haha ... I finally got a good one after like 7-8 trips.

As for fishing cuda during the winter, I don't think I've ever caught one or tried for one in the winter... It would definitely be fun though.

Isn't 8lb way too light for toothy fish like bonito/barracuda... What kind of leader do you use to protect your lure ?

It sounds light but I have never had problems with it. Most fish don't swallow the lure. **knock on wood**
