20141001_143043[1]-- PERSONAL BEST CHANNEL CAT
So I had an interesting conversation with Carl Hendrix earlier … he asked me if I was going to use his Rascals if I was to go out fishing this afternoon and I told him I would and was anxious but it might be too windy. He also noted that his Rascals catch everything…. Possums … turtles everything. Lol I laughed.
Later in the afternoon I decided my neck pain was acceptable to go out for a bit. I hit my big bluegill hot spot and see nothing … no schools just a few preds at the second and third break probably smallmouth I thought. My focus was Gill! I set up my heaviest action UL drop shot rig with the smallest pink Rascal in the bunch pinched off a piece of crawler and casted a pattern at the first break probably 12- 15 ft. the rod jumped as I was crawling the rascal back on about the fourth cast. Auto hook set I thought as the reel screamed I carefully played the fish to the boat and was shocked to see a huge channel cat. First and personal best. Thanks again Carl!

I tote three, generally.
A heavier model spinning
A long spin fly, w- trigger spin reel
A 5' graphite U/L spinning.
