that spot is in abut 60ft right now, lol

I imagine so with the lake levels

but it's still a good spot...wonder if the ole engine block is still there? or better yet, the string.

20 lb blue on eagle mountain on shad drifting in about 25 to 30 foot of water.

Engine block yes but the string I doubt it lol. You been there lately?

we tried it last winter...and didn't get a bite. I think it was too early in the season.

I looked but I didn't see Salsa's P/B anywhere on here

Porky in my sig is my personal best. I caught that beast while teaching Gary how to drift out of the back of his boat.

jk lol.

Gary put me on that fish! Thanks again Gary!

We had a day last year that was amazing and I know some fish I caught were in the mid to high 50's. BUT, we didn't have a scale that day (actually we did but it got wet and didn't work)

So, my documented PB to date is 48lbs.

Yes, Teri has me beat by almost 10lbs.

61 Twok, 44 Lavon, 44 Waco, 23 Belton, 17 PK,25 Limestone

This is my PB - scale issues that day but i know it was well over 50 ! Amazing day on the water!

I think you are on a mission to double it this season!!!

Great Job!!!

I think she caught 8 or 9 like that that particular day. I think I may have caught 2.

53# From Lake Worth. Looking to break 60+ from Worth this year

I enjoyed the video Brady S.
Thanks.

47 out of twok in 2ft of water.

some people will disagree, but I beg you please let those big fish go. There's plenty of box fish to go around.

Off topic but what kind of setup do most use when catching these huge arse cats. Line wieght and reels mainly. Thanks

Read this and it will tell you just about everything you need to know

Thanks crago jr, that is a good site to learn from but I'm still looking to se what most guys on the TFF use. What lb line and hook size when targeting the big cats. Thanks again

Most guys are using more or less this rig:

30lb mono on santee cooper rig, 8/0 circle hook w/ 50-60lb clear mono leader. Most guys are using 2-3oz's of weight...both egg and no roll. They are snelling their circles.

Also on this same rig, others use 50-80lb briaded line.

ABU 6500, I use a float rig, it keeps your bait at a controlled distance off the bottom and out of the mud, I don't like to drift fish because I use 30# line and you can't hardly break it, 30 lb Main line, 60 lb leader line for my hook, 20 lb line about 3'0 long for my weight with a slip float on it and a 2 oz no roll weight with the eyelet, I also use a barrel swivel instead of a 3-way, because a 3-way will cut or twist your line till it breaks

A little one
