HUGE ... mac. 2 short WSB in 120ft 30# floro reverse dropper with 8oz of lead and a 4ft line. On the way in hit the inside kelp for 10 barracuda.

Nice to hear someone got some action! Was a gorgeous day OTW nonetheless.. At one point i had put up the surface and only had a fly line and trap rig in the water when something good hit the down rig hard and pulled me around for about 5 minutes or so before it popped the hook off... did not fight or feel sharky at all def. a CBass or Yellow that took me down to the bottom... but we may never know

Cheers to a good day!

Dink's or legal? I haven't seen decent schools of barracuda for a long time. They taste great from the smoker.

"Slime Stick" ... LOL. That's self explanatory

They also don't do well laying in the sun for very long.

They can be a pest or fun on light gear.

I think my outback has this issue with the back dipping and taking on water in the rear hatch. I need to fix that shit before my SCI trip.
