Finally got out today after being extremely busy all spring with work. Great day on the water, the conditions were not as bad as they were predicting. Strictly bucktailed all day with a 2oz bucktail with 10lb braid to 12lb mono leader. The fights were awesome from the 4pound and 6pound fluke. Good short action all day also. The 6 pounder is a PB for me can't imagine what a 10 is like. Check out the video of the action.

Nice! Haven't had a chance to catch a fluke yet this year. I pretty much felt that fish fighting you on the way up. Way to work it, nice fish. And very cool point of view!

Thank you, just got the go pro cam still trying to get used to it. Its def cool to be able to look back on the day especially if it was a good one.

Very nice POV, and great job keeping that consistent bend in the rod after hookup!

Thanks it was def a battle on that little rod. I am also surprised on how the go pro captures all the action its awesome. I think i need to try using 1080p to record because i lost some quality when i uploaded the vid to youtube.

yes it is a good time only thing is i can't use over 2ozs. I lose alot of action that rod with anything heavier.
