p.s. Went out again today with Pete and and we had another great day. I took one of my livelining rods (since I broke my largemouth bass rod). I was doing great and catching plenty of fish. Pete came over to help release one of my fish and saw my braid and leader. He said "what diameter braid is that"? I said 80 lb power pro:eek:. It's all the braid I own for trolling. I just spooled some on a spinning rod and went fishing. Pete just shakes his head. He said I don't do too bad for a troller:rolleyes:.

I almost had tears in my eyes when you said you were jigging with a $20.00 reel spooled with 80 LB. power pro:eek: I'm sure Pete has seen worse |
